What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead operational improvements and cross‑functional projects, work with collaborative teams, scale programs, and drive measurable impact.

I am a resourceful Project Manager and Operations Specialist with over 3 years of experience leading multi‑state programs, coordinating distributed teams, and driving operational efficiency across commercial, healthcare‑adjacent, and advocacy sectors.

I specialize in project planning, stakeholder management, SOP development, and process improvement, and I leverage tools such as Asana, Monday.com, Microsoft Office Suite, Canva, and Google Workspace to streamline execution and reporting.

My track record includes introducing structured workflows that reduced delays by 40%, leading sales initiatives that increased monthly revenue by 25%, and growing social media engagement by 60% for advocacy programs.

I am passionate about process optimization, team collaboration, and delivering high‑impact initiatives on time and within budget, while mentoring volunteers and coordinating cross‑regional campaigns to scale community impact.
