What I'm looking for
I am an experienced project manager with a diverse background in accounting and property management. My journey began with a Bachelor of Arts in Sociology from the University of California, Santa Cruz, and has since evolved through various roles that have honed my skills in project coordination, event planning, and financial management.
Currently, I work as a Project Manager at Lucky Bustar, where I have successfully developed a website and implemented payment systems. My role involves overseeing product development, testing, and marketing, which has allowed me to leverage my organizational skills effectively. Additionally, my experience as an Account Manager at Hello KPOP USA has equipped me with strong communication skills, as I handle inquiries and manage vendor relationships.
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated my ability to streamline processes and improve operational efficiency. My time as a Staff Accountant at Robert Tseng Chiropractic Corp involved creating user-friendly formats for financial documentation, showcasing my attention to detail and commitment to excellence. I am passionate about contributing to a dynamic team and driving projects to successful completion.
