What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values communication, collaboration, and growth opportunities.

I am a resourceful and versatile professional with a unique blend of experience in linguistics, education, property management, and administrative support. With advanced academic credentials in linguistics and over three years of hands-on experience in diverse linguistic subfields, I am highly adaptable and tech-savvy. My passion lies in solving complex communication challenges, whether working independently or collaborating with a team.

In my previous roles, I have taught English, focusing on enhancing students' reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills. I applied psycholinguistic principles to develop effective language acquisition strategies and designed culturally responsive lessons. My experience as a Front Office Manager and Property Manager has honed my skills in customer relations, operations management, and reporting, allowing me to contribute to tenant retention and efficiency improvements.
