About

I am, first and foremost, an interdisciplinary thinker. Following my studies at Gettysburg College and UCC (Ireland), I gained invaluable insight through the University of New Haven Education M.S. program, on stage, in rehearsal rooms, and in the work place with learners of all ages. I am adaptive, bright, cooperative, creative, organized, quick to learn, and self-motivated. I excel at client consultation, follow through, logistics, presentations, and team leadership. I've represented and supported Eagle Home Inspections through day-to-day status monitoring, radon test coordination, and NHMR, YPN, and shoreline real estate networks. I assisted with seasonal sales, marketing, and banquet at Hawk's Landing Country Club and helped to balance accounts receivable at Law Offices of Paul A. Lange. During my years with Staples Corporate & Commercial, I negotiated, won, and supervised regional and national furniture projects. My comprehensive book of business (2014-2017) included Edge Fitness, General Dynamics Electric Boat, Hopkins School, State of CT Municipalities, and Macy's. I have experience in music performance, teaching, nannying, wine sales, small business strategy, social media marketing, public speaking, and negotiation. I am equally comfortable presenting to an audience, leading peers, and advising the C-suite. I am an experienced live performer and the founder of Captain Millennial, LLC. I hope to eventually earn a Ph.D and contribute on the municipal, state, and federal levels to assist our U.S. public education system through arts & culture. Specialties: Vocal performance, musicology, musical theatre, music arranging, K-12 education, political thought, marketing strategy, corporate / enterprise / small business sales, relationships (client, account, agent, vendor, & network), administrative aid, resolution, and negotiation
