About

As a first-gen, I believe it isn’t always about knowing it all; it’s curiosity that leads while passion fuels your work. Currently, I am looking to grow my experience in project management, operations, strategic planning, and expand my skills in these spaces. I have previous experience with administrative work in various cities and have a passion for community-driven work. Currently located in Orange County, and from the East Bay Area. I am open to having a chat and learn about any opportunities in all industries! ♡
