Looking for a job

What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a long-term home, not a stepping stone — a company that invests in retaining the people it values, through compensation and benefits that reflect real recognition. I want room to grow beyond my starting role, and I'm especially drawn to teams that work cross-functionally, since that's where I've learned the most and built the skills I'm proudest of.

I've built operational order out of complexity across four very different industries over the past 10 years— mortgage, cannabis regulatory compliance, real estate, and nonprofit operations — and each pivot taught me the same thing: I can walk into an unfamiliar industry, learn its rules fast, and start building systems almost immediately.

A few numbers that tell the story: I once protected a $4M investment from a licensure loss with 30 days on the clock. I caught a regulatory violation in my first week on a job that saved $147K in penalties. I managed 100+ licenses across 5 states with zero missed renewals, and ran permitting and municipal approvals for 16 retail location launches across 5 company mergers. A documentation system I built years ago is still in active use today.

I use AI tools daily to move faster without cutting corners, including designing a workflow automation that's still running in production. Bilingual in English and Spanish, and always looking for the next complex problem worth solving.
