Summary

Seeking a position to grow my experience in the Wedding and Event coordination industry. By spending a year studying, volunteering, and working abroad, I gained the passion and ability to connect with people and events from any background. My strong attention to detail and ability to thrive under pressure allows me to follow instructions and successfully execute plans. I comfortably work through high pressure situations through my leadership role with Jersey Mike's Subs and Abernethy Center. I successfully manage and coordinate operations while fostering relationships with clients, guests, and vendors. I ensure client satisfaction during wedding receptions and ceremonies while maintaining a positive and professional relationship with clients.
