A global citizen with a tireless work ethic, I am attracted to organizations that promote diversity and teamwork and whose mission is to solve complex problems. I can bring my positive attitude and expertise to support such organizations in data analysis or project management as a PMD Pro I certified project manager. How did I get here?After 4 years in financial operations for an investment bank I want to bring what I learned there to further the community and international development approach to the huge issues facing us today. My greatest asset is my ability to aid these organizations in using their precious resources in the most efficient way while maximizing their impact.
