Customer-focused leader with experience in hospitality, team management, operations, and event coordination.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
My career has centered around creating positive experiences, leading teams, and keeping fast-paced operations organized and efficient. I’ve worked in hospitality, management, and childcare, giving me a well-rounded background and the ability to adapt quickly to different environments and responsibilities.
At Topgolf, I’ve grown significantly in my leadership role, overseeing team performance, guest satisfaction, and daily operations. My leadership and contributions were recognized when I received Topgolf’s 2025 Leadership Star Award. Through Day Drink Entertainment, I’ve managed and bartended for large-scale events, including a food festival with approximately 10,000 attendees per day, where I supervised 16 bartenders across four bar locations throughout the festival.
I’m interested in expanding my career beyond hospitality and finding a role where I can continue learning, take on new challenges, and contribute to a strong team. I’m especially interested in opportunities in operations, administration, customer experience, and event coordination.
