What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my skills in international education and program management, with a focus on collaboration and cultural exchange.

I am a dedicated professional with a robust background in international education and enrollment management. Currently, I serve as the Manager of Enrollments at Greenheart International, where I cultivate relationships with international partners and oversee the processing of candidate applications. My role involves organizing training sessions for stakeholders and representing the Enrollments Department in cross-department projects aimed at enhancing process efficiencies.

Previously, I worked as an Enrollment Coordinator at Greenheart International, where I evaluated J-1 program applications and ensured compliance with both organizational and Department of State regulations. My experience as a Data Expert at Numerator, LLC, allowed me to develop a keen understanding of client needs through collaboration and data analysis. I have also taught English in Russia, where I focused on building cultural understanding and delivering engaging lessons to diverse audiences.
