What I'm looking for
I've supported project, finance, operations, and technical teams at Office Depot, UMD/ARLIS, the Institute of International Education, First Book, DAR, and Apple.
At Office Depot, I maintained the Project Tracker system, processed month-end journal entries in Excel, and developed SOPs for recurring PMO work. At UMD/ARLIS, I supported post-award finance activities, budget tracking, proposal budgets, and spending plans.
I've also managed CRM and e-commerce data, quality-checked project documents, coordinated onboarding and event logistics, and provided customer technical support for hardware, mobile devices, and networks. I bring organized documentation, troubleshooting, and remote cross-functional collaboration to every role.
