About Me

After graduating from Loyola University Maryland with a degree in International Business I decided to go abroad to

receive my MBA in an international setting. While receiving my MBA I had the chance to work for and learn from some very

influential CEO’s in Thailand. Living and learning in Thailand, both in the classroom and in the business world, gave me

real-world experience in a global setting. Upon returning to the states I joined the Galley Creative Group Firm as the new

marketing and social media manager. I've had the opportunity to work directly with the President of Galley Creative Group

which is a full-service branding agency. I was tasked with the responsibility to maintain current clients as wel l as help build

the Galley brand. I believe having the opportunity to work directly with multiple CEO’s and heads of companies has given me

an enormous amount of insight into what it takes to run a successful organization and be competitive within your ind ustry.
