    Over the years, I've had the opportunity to gain experience across a wide range of jobs such as: marketing/branding, essay/dissertation editing and formatting, building the entire financial structure of a now global organization, legal government filings, and a lot of compliance across state and federal levels. Most recently I grew a start-up nonprofit from 9 us cities and 150 volunteers to 19 US Cities, 8 countries, and over 1500 volunteers. I was primarily tasked with establishing the financial and legal structure of the organization, but as I was the only employee at the time, in a volunteer run organization, I was involved in development of several other parts of the organization such as developing the internal culture of the organization, risk identification and mitigation strategies, partnerships, and many more. I've been able to excel at all of these things primarily due to my emotional intelligence, high level of patience, my keen observation skills, attention to detail, and proactive thinking. If I submit a proposal, I am 100% positive I am capable of efficiently delivering high quality work.
