Available to hire
I have experience in communications and program management, often in “many hats” roles working with cross-functional teams. I thrive in connecting people, ideas, and resources around common goals and needs. I’m a strong visual and systems thinker, and I enjoy bringing order out of potential chaos. I am easy to get along with, have a good sense of humor, and approach challenges with curiosity and a growth mindset.
