Work History

Coach

Y4YFC
NY, NY
09.2023 - Current
  • Presently working at Y4YFC, which is an organization started by NYC high school soccer players who have played at elite levels, who's goal is to guide the next generations of NYC soccer players. I coach young aspiring soccer players through private sessions helping them reach new levels in their craft and sharing knowledge through my experiences.
  • During my time at Y4YFC, I successfully recruited a network of experienced high school soccer players as coaches. This not only provided them with the opportunity to earn money but also promoted the brand whilst inspiring youth to engage in sports. Using grass roots initiatives such as recruiting “Brand Ambassadors” and social media proved to be a very economical and effective tool for marketing.

  • Developed a foundational understanding of business principles by marketing myself to clients and collaborating with professionals in the fashion industry. Gained exposure to how brands position themselves and create appeal, while honing skills in adaptability, professionalism, and visual representation—insights that translate to various business sectors.

  • Head of the finance committee for the UNIS UN conference, which brings together over 30 schools from around the world to discuss a Sustainable Development Goal at the United Nations General Assembly.
    My task was to work with my committee to find new ways to help fund the conference. The 2024 UNIS UN conference was a great experience for everyone. My team and I were proud of our efforts that resulted in raising over $70,000 to help fund the conference. Throughout this experience, I further developed my creativity and problem-solving skills, which I trust will keep me in good stead working in a dynamic business.
