What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply my program operations, event coordination, compliance, and stakeholder-management experience in a role supporting complex initiatives and improving organizational processes.

At Carnegie Mellon University, I coordinate operations for a data-driven research center and engineering department, supporting sponsor relationships, faculty, students, laboratories, and corporate partners.

I organize on- and off-campus events from start to finish, serve on the administrative board for a national magnetics conference, and maintain its informational website. My conference support helped deliver the best-attended event since 2018.

I build practical systems that improve responsiveness and organization, including streamlined communications and a contact-management system for corporate partners and alumni. I also support lab compliance, tracking, and inspections across 15 lab spaces, contributing to increased safety scores.

Previously at UPMC Health Plan, I supported federally funded research on reducing hospital readmissions, developed recruitment and database protocols, and created a Power BI dashboard to identify recruitment trends. Across healthcare, real estate, automotive, retail, and nonprofit settings, I’ve also managed calendars, travel, events, inventory, accounting processes, staff training, and customer relationships.
