Summary
With over a decade of experience in retail sales, I made a strategic shift to a remote work environment in 2021. This transition led me to Vail Resorts, where I consistently surpassed targets in high-volume inbound sales, IT support, and the payroll department.
The flexibility at Vail Resorts allowed me to make several lateral moves, enabling me to acquire a diverse set of valuable skills and a deep understanding of interdepartmental interactions. When my capabilities surpassed the available opportunities within the company, I sought new challenges to further my growth.
Currently, I am contributing to Autodesk in a contract role, assisting global customers in configuring our company as a vendor in their procurement systems. I am now seeking a stable position with clear pathways for advancement, as I am committed to long-term growth with my next employer.
In addition to my professional journey, I have cultivated a small business, leveraging my graphic design skills and craftsmanship to achieve over 600 sales. Furthermore, I have recorded and released over 10 music albums, managing their distribution across all major platforms. My diverse experiences have equipped me with a unique blend of skills, and a passion for continuous learning and development.
