Currently full time at Preservation Utah as the venue manager at Memorial House in Memory Grove Park since April 2021.

This job taught me so much, I was an intimate part of wedding planning and celebration of life events, there were many corporate events, birthdays, baptism celebrations, graduations, etc. But to learn the proper tones and complexities of having back to back clients, one overjoyed at being engaged and planning their special day, the beginning of their whole life in every detail, then turn around and plan with a couple burying their son, wanting to celebrate the talents, skills and honor a soul that has gone too early, this was di cult at rst. I learned that there is a brief emotional and empathetic introduction to the stoty, for very client, and then most people want me to guide the way with con dence and expertise. Everyone is so di erent, some people have high expectations for these rare occasions in their life, and others need simplicity and help making decisions for them, and both take listening and taking time to ask the right questions.

20% Responding to inquiries and communicating with clients via phone and email 20% Advertising and marketing (online, social media, print, etc.) 15% Facility upkeep, supplies purchasing
