What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my community engagement skills and offers opportunities for professional growth in a supportive environment.

I am a motivated and results-driven Social Facilitator with a strong background in community engagement, conflict resolution, and stakeholder communication. My experience spans various sectors, including construction, education, sales, and consulting. I am known for my exceptional interpersonal skills and attention to detail, which allow me to manage high-pressure environments effectively.

Currently, I work at Queskills Development, where I manage community relations and engage stakeholders to ensure social impacts are considered in construction projects. My previous roles have equipped me with the skills to build trust within communities and resolve conflicts efficiently. I am passionate about creating positive social impacts and fostering collaboration among diverse groups.
