What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration and creativity, where I can leverage my skills in writing and project management to contribute to meaningful projects.

I am an experienced collaborator and team manager with a strong background in writing, editing, and marketing. My journey began with a Bachelor of Arts in Film Studies, complemented by minors in English Writing and Sociology, which have equipped me with a unique perspective on storytelling and communication. I pride myself on being patient and detail-oriented, always striving to solve problems efficiently.

In my current role as a Production Coordinator at The Barn Theatre, I manage theatre productions, overseeing everything from actors to crew. I have successfully led a marketing team to enhance visibility and attendance, while also creating engaging physical and digital marketing materials. My previous experience as a Staff Writer at the Renville County Register honed my skills in interviewing, writing, and editing, allowing me to produce compelling articles that resonate with the community.
