Additional Information

I am the financial manager and event planner for the theatre group, Transylvanian Lip Treatment. I have been with the group from the very beginning as a founding member, est. 2010. Starting as a grass roots ensemble, we have developed into a successful and wonderfully diverse and all inclusive, 501c3 theatre troop. To organize all of our events and performances, which are anywhere from 20-30 per year, demands extreme organizational and communication skills, as well. I enjoy it so much, that it doesn't seem like work at all.
