What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a fast-paced role where I can deliver professional service, coordinate events or front-desk operations, lead teams, and solve issues quickly—while building strong relationships with clients, visitors, parents, and staff.

I’m focused on providing professional service and support to every office visitor, with a positive nature and excellent people skills. With bringing in 10+ years of experience managing fast-paced, front desk operations, I’m strong in planning, problem solving, and communication—and I make it my business to exceed in all that I do.

In event work, I set up and dismantle events, help close out financial tabs and payments, address concerns or complaints quickly, and offer a welcoming guest experience even with the toughest of patrons. I also coordinate on-site implementation—managing crew and equipment, liaising with clients, assisting with vendor coordination and permitting, and supporting wrap-up and documentation—while balancing that same service mindset from my classroom and leadership background as a Lead Teacher and Executive Director and Coordinator.
