Project Manager | Data-Driven Solutions Specialist

With 10 years of professional experience across diverse industries, I bring a detail-oriented, client-focused, and results-driven approach to every project I undertake. My expertise lies in project coordination, process optimization, and cross-functional team leadership, with a proven ability to manage complex workflows, streamline operations, and deliver high-quality results on time. I thrive in dynamic environments where strategic thinking, adaptability, and clear communication are essential to success.

In my role as a Remote Research Associate at the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA), I managed multiple projects simultaneously, ensuring deadlines were met through meticulous tracking, reporting, and stakeholder coordination. I spearheaded the creation of new educational content focused on environmental justice, addressing data challenges and implementing innovative solutions to improve efficiency and impact. This experience honed my skills in project coordination, stakeholder management, and process optimization, allowing me to deliver results that align with both client and organizational goals.

Prior to my work at UCLA, I held management positions in the food and beverage industry, where I developed strong leadership, problem-solving, and organizational skills. As a Barista/Customer Service Representative at Bodega Wine Bar, I improved customer satisfaction by implementing task scheduling improvements that enhanced team performance and resource efficiency. I also maintained accurate records of sales and customer preferences, contributing to a more personalized and high-quality service experience. These roles reinforced my ability to work collaboratively in fast-paced environments, manage time effectively, and adapt to changing priorities—skills that are directly transferable to project management and client-facing roles.

My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Climate Science with a minor in Conservation Biology from UCLA, which has provided me with a strong foundation in data analysis, research, and system-based thinking. I am proficient in using tools such as Google Suite, Microsoft Office Suite (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams), and have experience with data visualization and report writing. Additionally, my knowledge of Agile methodology and client relationship management allows me to approach projects with a structured yet flexible mindset, ensuring that client needs are met while maintaining project efficiency.
