What I'm looking for

I seek roles leading international education programs where I can manage partnerships, run bilingual events, improve processes, and drive measurable growth in engagement and conversions.

I am an international education professional with 7 years' experience managing transnational education projects, partner relations, and large-scale bilingual events. I have a strong record of coordinating with government and enterprise clients, negotiating institutional agreements, and driving measurable growth in partnership value and lead generation.

I have led major HSK and teacher certification operations, implemented process standardization that improved satisfaction and pass rates, and designed high-impact promotional and training programs that increased brand visibility and client conversion. I bring strategic project coordination, solution-based sales experience, and proven cross-cultural communication skills to roles requiring end-to-end program delivery and stakeholder trust-building.
