What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead operations and financial strategy, grow businesses, mentor teams, and expand ventures internationally while leveraging my writing and marketing skills.

I am a results-driven business owner and experienced manager with over five years overseeing operations, finances, and customer service. I founded and run a bar services business while managing daily operations and a team at a retail company, consistently improving workflows, service quality, and profitability.

As a published author of Things We Don't Admit, I combine entrepreneurial discipline with communication and marketing skills to grow audiences and drive engagement. I hold a Junior Accountant Diploma and am passionate about business development, international expansion, and continuous learning.
