My personal goal is to work in a setting that keeps me creatively engaged while making a measurable positive impact on the world I live in. I excel in building or overhauling processes as well as creating buy-in for the larger mission and leading large teams.My greatest skills are managing people and processes, using data to uncover strategic insights, identifying opportunities to optimize existing or new business operations, and leading a team to attain their maximum personal potential. In the last few years alone I have managed a fundraising team for a nonprofit working to support pending environmental legislation, I was contracted to write and edit web content and journalistic articles about Environmental Justice for a leading national university, I taught myself to use Salesforce and in a matter of weeks I created complex reports improving data quality and operational efficiency for a leading green-tech start-up, I oversaw the reinvention of a budgeting and inventory tracking process that resulted in a 40% cost reduction, I was responsible for overseeing the customization of a mobile app that integrated with Salesforce and improved field sales productivity while making our process more sustainable, I analyzed data points about individual residential properties to create a likelihood-to-act score that caused a 20% lift in close-rate, and I invented a new solar rating technique that made my team the industry leader in both speed and accuracy.My philosophy as a manager is to empower my team to confidently take on all challenges with personalized communication patterns and accountability structures and emphasizing an ongoing focus on improvements to the business model as well as one’s professional self.
