A Note from Me…

While my focus has been primarily in the theatrical world, my qualifications translate into many different jobs. As part of my experience, I am comfortable working in large teams, familiar with Microsoft Office programs, and have extensive training in Human Resources. As a leader of many management teams, I was responsible for payroll and budget submissions, training new team members, communicating with out-of-town General Managers, organizing weekly travel logistics for teams of 40+ members, and acting as a Union steward for some of our company members.
