About me
I am passionate about traveling and learning about the world while on the road, and am even more driven by helping to facilitate this opportunity amongst my peers. Over my years of both working and volunteering, I have had extensive experience in training and facilitating through my many leadership roles in non-profit, I have gained soft skills in sales and marketing in food and beverage, and I have polished my written communication skills through contracted positions in blogging and content marketing. I am constantly seeking opportunities that will allow me to see the world through new eyes and impact the people I meet along the way. Opportunities that also play to my well-rounded skill set and need for challenging environments are always welcome. Currently, I am working towards my Masters in Cultural Policy, Relations, and Diplomacy in London, UK at Goldsmiths, University of London. After my studies, I am looking for work in the foreign affairs, government relations, or consultancy departments of community-based arts organizations.
