What I did:
As Director of Operations, I ran the day-to-day business and managed projects across development, marketing, and events. I owned budgeting, hiring, and vendor relationships while keeping cross-functional teams aligned and shipping on time.
Toward the end of my time there, I built AI automations that changed how the company worked internally. I automated communication workflows, task assignments, and reporting by integrating tools with Asana. What used to take hours of manual coordination now happened automatically, which freed the team to focus on the product and the customers instead of chasing updates.
Key contributions:
Managed development and marketing projects from planning through delivery
Oversaw budgeting, hiring, and vendor negotiations (18% cost savings through renegotiated contracts)
Built AI-powered automations for task assignment, internal comms, and reporting
Integrated workflows with Asana to streamline project tracking
Reduced manual coordination work so the team could focus on higher-value tasks
