What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that values creativity and strategic communication, fostering growth and collaboration.

I am a versatile writer and editor with a strong background in communications, marketing, and event management. With over two decades of experience, I have successfully managed programs and events at Yale University, where I developed marketing strategies and executed logistics for numerous educational seminars. My role as Program Administrator has honed my skills in strategic planning and community relations, allowing me to expand the reach of our initiatives effectively.

In addition to my work at Yale, I have served as the Marketing Communications Director at Burzenski & Company, where I implemented integrated marketing strategies and supervised a team to enhance our brand presence. My previous experience as Communications Manager at BL Companies, Inc. equipped me with the expertise to direct communications initiatives across multiple states, ensuring consistent messaging and branding. I am passionate about creating impactful content and fostering relationships that drive organizational success.
