Need a Hand?

 

Thank you for your time and consideration - I appreciate it greatly. I'm currently looking for a role in project management, either remotely or locally in Cherokee County.

I use software, web development, and automation to streamline communications, tasks, and processes. I would love to know more about your requirements for the position you want to fill, and I look forward to speaking with you. Please feel free to call anytime or email me:

Leading a team of four and responsible for daily marketing efforts, I coordinated and helped create weekly promotions for four websites.

My team also collaborated with outside stakeholders to refine the brand of the company and social media efforts

We created instructional videos on how to use features in WordPress, HubSpot, and other programs. My team negotiated better prices for web hosting which in turn saved the company roughly $325 a month.

Project Management

After working in web design and development for over 15 years, I took a step toward management and the direction I wanted my career to go. I was inspired by some of the stories from other developers in the WordPress community and decided to enroll in a project management class. The course, offered by Google and Coursera helped me understand the unique responsibilities and details needed for not only the project life cycle, but also techniques and strategies for teamwork, project agility, scope, risk management, and conflict resolution. The experience I have with leading has changed from when I was in the military and now working with team members who are not enlisted.

Military

 

On September 15, 1997, I swore an oath and joined the United States Marines. For 5 years, I served with Sailors, Soldiers, and Airmen in the intelligence community. After 1 year of learning code, signals propagation, and encryption I joined the fleet. During my tenure I was trained that knowledge is power and giving up is not an option.

That still holds true after 25 years.
