Originally from Atlanta, Georgia but find myself 'across the pond' in my final semester of business school in France, I am seeking an opportunity to start my career and grow with a company in Europe or the United States in a Marketing/Management position in May 2020.

Throughout my years of study at prominent educational institutions in the United States, Spain and France, I have demonstrated an outstanding level of academic achievement. I was selected out of thousands of applicants to receive a full academic scholarship to Georgia Southern University shortly after graduating high school.

I have always naturally fallen into a leadership role because of my strong capacity for allocating resources, multi-tasking and managing projects under tight semester deadlines. For example, out of my class of 550 students I was selected to represent my school at the University of Berkeley California for the National Student Leadership Conference where I demonstrated leadership and commitment to teamwork.

In addition to my strong academic background, I have experience working in various marketing positions where I have acquired skills in recruiting, managing programs, communicating with a diverse group of people, and administering tasks.

At Empress Elite Limo, I worked closely with the CEO to organize marketing campaigns and communicated with various affiliates to ensure that publications aligned with state laws. More recently at Peak Enterprises Corp., I managed to climb to Head of the Recruiting department in just 3 months based on my performance, where I managed a team of people, organized and held meetings, as well as conducted interviews for positions available within the company.

I thrive in high-pressure and fast-paced situations, striving for positive results by applying my project management and marketing abilities. Further, I possess expertise in process development and acumen for maximizing performance and inspiring colleagues. I am able to visualize success and identify unconventional yet highly effective strategies for achieving it.

I have skillfully balanced organizational objectives and productive relationships, strategizing and recommending ways in which to achieve and maintain a competitive business edge. My critical thinking and innovation talents have supported my professional growth.
