What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values collaboration and offers opportunities for professional growth.

As a dedicated Program Assistant with extensive experience in administrative support and event coordination, I thrive in fast-paced environments where I can contribute to the success of educational programs. My role at East Side House Settlement allowed me to develop strong organizational skills while facilitating daily operations and supporting program directors. I take pride in my ability to maintain accurate records and ensure compliance, which has been crucial in enhancing program effectiveness.

In my recent position as a Production Assistant for BWIC Laff Fest, I honed my skills in logistical coordination and customer service. I successfully managed multi-day events, ensuring seamless communication and execution. My proactive approach to problem-solving and collaboration with production teams has consistently resulted in positive participant experiences. I am passionate about creating engaging programs that foster academic success and career readiness for youth.
