In 2022, I began my position with the Literary Arts Institute. As a student worker for the Literary Arts Institute, my main job is to help coordinate and market events for and to those on campus and the surrounding communities. I maintain our website, design and distribute posters, and manage social media to educate and market for our events with visiting authors and poets.

As a Housing Stability Fellow for Americorps, I served as Volunteer Lead for the Central Minnesota Habitat for Humanity May through August of 2023. Twice a day I would present the project, safety protocol, and our goals for the shift to a diverse group of volunteers. I worked alongside them to complete goals to progress to a finished home. I gained valuable experience in volunteer management, safety coordination, and conflict resolution. I developed strong leadership and communication skills while ensuring a positive and productive environment for volunteers. This experience enhanced my ability to work collaboratively and adaptively in dynamic settings. I am grateful to have had this opportunity to work with so many volunteers toward a good cause.

As a house manager for CSB+SJU's Fine Arts Programming, I developed strong leadership abilities while overseeing a team of ushers and coordinating with technical staff to deliver exceptional experiences for patrons. I honed my skills in event management, customer service, and conflict resolution. This experience enhanced my ability to handle high-pressure situations with professionalism and efficiency, preparing me for future roles in hospitality, event management, and customer service.
