I have organized study tours in Silicon Valley for executives from abroad by managing the schedule, coordinating with companies to visit (Apple, Salesforce, AWS, etc.), booking locations, restaurants, buses, coordinating with speakers, etc. During my employment with South Suburban Parks and Recreation, I planned and administered a variety of sport programs for various ages and skill levels including BMX, soccer, volleyball, and golf.

Depending on what cities our nationwide sponsors wanted visibility in, I had to manage the logistics behind routing specific sponsor fulfillment equipment off of Truck A and onto Truck B.
