What I'm looking for

I am looking for a hands-on operations or event management role where I can lead teams, optimize processes, and deliver inclusive guest experiences while driving revenue and operational efficiency.

I am an operations and customer engagement professional with 5+ years managing high-volume hospitality and live events. I specialize in driving efficiency while delivering exceptional guest experiences.

I have produced over 55 live events featuring 150+ acts and led cross-departmental teams to boost attendance and engagement. In hospitality roles I developed signature tasting menus and beverage programs that increased revenue and trained and directed service teams to maintain brand standards.

I focus on inventory control, compliance reporting, and supply chain workflows to improve audit readiness and reduce waste. I seek collaborative environments that value inclusion, community, and measurable operational impact.
