What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead projects end-to-end, coordinate people and partners, and use reporting/data thinking to improve outcomes—while creating engaging, well-run programs and events in a collaborative, growth-minded environment.

I’m a Project Manager with hands-on experience coordinating 12+ projects and leading cross-team alumni engagement initiatives, including an Annual Jalə Calalova Alumni Gala with 100+ attendees. I combine project/program management with data analysis and reporting to keep stakeholders aligned and outcomes measurable.

Alongside program work, I’ve coordinated large-scale competitions across 80+ teams and managed partnerships with 10 sponsors—strengthening engagement while driving smooth execution. Previously, I led marketing and PR efforts, building content and social media strategies that grew an audience from 600 to 1,300 followers in 3 months (+116%). I’m motivated by planning, collaboration, and delivering events and programs that create real momentum.
