I’m a proactive, results-driven Project Manager and Operations & Internal Marketing Strategist with 7+ years of experience leading teams, managing complex logistics, and executing high-impact projects across corporate communications, operations, and event planning. I’m known for aligning cross-functional stakeholders and streamlining processes that keep delivery on time and outcomes measurable.
At Deloitte & Touche LLP, I lead internal projects focused on increasing employee engagement by 80% through cross-departmental communication and alignment. I develop and execute communication strategies with senior leadership, delegate cross-functional messaging, monitor engagement metrics, and continuously optimize based on stakeholder feedback. I also mentor and supervise team members, ensuring daily workflows directly support long-term initiatives.
Previously, as an Operations & Events Project Coordinator, I managed high-volume procurement, inventory control, and vendor relationships across multi-office operations, while planning corporate events with end-to-end logistics, budgets, and deliverables. I’ve also improved efficiency and team productivity by 65% across regional offices and built engaging internal experiences that strengthen culture. I bring a strong communicator, problem-solver mindset and a drive to create seamless, high-performing systems and products—whether working in kanban or sprint delivery models.
