A Little Bit About Me
Hello! Like many, my career success path has been non-linear. I started my professional career in the field of insurance, and detoured towards work more focused on my natural talents and strengths. I began contract work in opportunities that allowed me to work closely and directly with people, connect, and build relationships in roles like partnerships, events, and community relations. I love live music, baking, picnicking, traveling abroad, and practicing my improv skills whenever possible. 10+ years experience of project management, community relations, events marketing, partnerships, career coaching, and people-focused work. My top StrengthsFinder strengths include: -> Connectedness -> Communication -> Positivity -> Winning Others Over -> Maximizer
