Summary
I have over ten years of experience working in administrative and managerial positions. My background primarily consists of work in the entertainment industry, but my skillset transfers into many fields. My experiences as an Operations Manager, Production Secretary and a Stage Manager have made me a master at keeping schedules, managing multiple tasks at once and managing people. I can prioritize items that need immediate attention, but I work hard to make sure that all jobs are finished in a timely manner. I am dedicated to doing the best job I can in any capacity.

Job Changes And Work Gaps
The production company I worked for closed Los Angeles operations in 2019. After that I was hired for a temporary position at The American Legion which lasted 6 months. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia shortly after that position ended so I took a health break until March 2021 so I could learn how to manage my condition. Since then, I've been supplementing my income by working as a stand in and BG performer while applying for permanent work. It's been a slow road as the world gets back on track and I am looking forward to stepping into my next position.
