Summary

I bring a diverse background spanning the culinary, performing arts, education, and event production industries. My early experience as a line cook taught me discipline, efficiency, and teamwork in high-pressure environments. As an actor and stage manager, I developed strong communication, creativity, and organizational skills, later expanding into education as a teacher’s assistant, where I supported learning and mentored students. Most recently, as founder and CEO of Pengu, I’ve led cross-functional teams to plan and execute successful social and corporate events, gaining hands-on expertise in leadership, branding, marketing, and event logistics. This blend of creative, managerial, and operational experience makes me adaptable and equipped to learn quickly and be a dynamic team member
