What I'm looking for

I’m focused on streamlining and scaling business workflows for greater efficiency, while also using my project coordination background to empower global learners as a freelance English educator.

At Integrated Water Services, I coordinated contract generation, management, and negotiation between subcontractors and the Legal department, working with contracts totaling over $8 million for 18 projects.

I also managed accounts payable invoices for 16 projects, worth over $1 million weekly, and used Power BI to deliver weekly reports and insights to stakeholders.

At Denver Commercial Property Services, I designed and implemented a semi-automated scheduling system in Excel. I also delivered weekly project updates and recommendations to C-Suite executives.

At Preply, I tailor English lessons to different audiences and improve trial lesson strategies to increase student enrollment and retention. I independently manage scheduling, client communications, and performance tracking remotely.
