What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that values client relationships and offers growth opportunities.

With a strong background in business development and client experience management, I have honed my skills in leading teams and driving success in various roles. At BridgeStreet Global Hospitality, I managed both inside and outside sales teams, promoting innovative solutions and enhancing client satisfaction. My efforts in creating training materials and synthesizing data into actionable reports have been recognized, earning me the Rising Star Award in 2017.

My journey began with a degree in Government and Politics from the University of Maryland, where I developed a keen understanding of public leadership. I have a proven track record of managing diverse teams and fostering positive relationships with clients. My experience spans from coordinating guest experiences at the Washington Nationals to creating engaging content for my own social media channel, Rap the Map. I am committed to continuous learning and adapting to new challenges, always striving to exceed expectations.
