What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead operations, projects, or production workflows where I can build reliable systems, coordinate cross-functional teams, improve processes, and provide high-level executive and client support.

I've led operations and production coordination at Rabiosa Pictures, launching two independent short films, a web series, and a television pilot while managing schedules, vendors, contracts, payroll pipelines, and talent releases. I also manage online content projects and quality editing for Apartment Therapy Media, coordinating client scopes, delivery timelines, brand alignment, and high-volume digital asset workflows.

Across legal, museum, tourism, education, and warehouse environments, I've modernized databases, supervised teams, rebuilt public programs, managed visitor and client experiences, and turned complex projects into structured, repeatable processes.
