What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned project management professional with over 15 years of experience in coordinating complex initiatives across various sectors, including real estate, education, and business development. My expertise lies in managing multiple concurrent projects, leading cross-functional teams, and delivering results on time and within budget.

Currently, I am the Brand Owner and Project Manager at Zamani Collective, where I conceptualized and launched a comprehensive e-commerce platform. My role involves managing the complete project lifecycle, coordinating with multiple vendors and stakeholders, and executing a multi-channel marketing strategy. I have successfully curated product lines and managed the end-to-end product lifecycle, resulting in a successful market entry and a cohesive brand identity.
Throughout my career, I have also held positions such as Contract Loan Processor and Licensed Realtor, where I coordinated complex loan documentation processes and managed over 75 real estate transactions. My educational background includes a Master’s degree in Leadership from Nova Southeastern University, and I am committed to continuous professional development, holding licenses in real estate and loan origination.
