What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration, innovation, and growth opportunities.

I am a dedicated professional with a strong background in organizational efficiency and employee engagement. My experience at McMaster University as an Administrative Library Associate allowed me to streamline operations and enhance interdepartmental communications, resulting in a 15% increase in operational efficiency and a 20% boost in project delivery efficiency. I take pride in fostering collaborative work environments that significantly reduce staff conflicts and enhance team productivity.

At David’s Bridal, I further honed my skills in customer satisfaction, successfully coordinating over 60 alteration requests per shift and improving client service processes. My ability to mediate disputes and promote positive relationships has led to a 30% reduction in staff conflicts. I have also contributed to business development initiatives at Casafina Window Fashions, where I generated new business opportunities and expanded market presence through targeted marketing initiatives.

With a solid educational foundation in Sociology and a double minor in Commerce and Political Science from McMaster University, I am equipped with theoretical and practical insights into organizational behavior and human resource management. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in project management, data analysis, and diversity initiatives to drive positive change in any organization.
