I’m a multifaceted professional with experience in communications, event coordination, operations, and project management.
In my recent role as Coro Southern California’s Director of Communications and Development, I developed compelling communications that increased revenue by 67% in one year. I'm skilled in leading multiple complex projects simultaneously in high-growth, fast-paced environments.
