Energetic leader skilled in food product marketing and agriculture.
What I'm looking for
I am an energetic and detail-oriented leader with a strong background in food product marketing and agricultural exporting. My journey began with a B.S. in Environmental Science from California Baptist University, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude, followed by a Master’s in International Agriculture Development from the University of California, Davis. This educational foundation has equipped me with the analytical and relational skills necessary to drive organizational results.
In my current role as a Sr. Project Engineer at 4G Development and Consulting, I provide consultancy on land use and commercial real estate development, focusing on projects in and around Portland, OR. My previous experience as the Global Connect Manager at the Western United States Agricultural Trade Association allowed me to manage international market development programs, leading a team to facilitate numerous marketing projects annually. I pride myself on my ability to synthesize complex data and communicate effectively with stakeholders, ensuring compliance with federal guidelines.
