A b o u t

Electronic music blog writer, music festival fiend, social media enthusiast, & traveler.

I have a business mindset, communication skills, and technical drive

But ultimately...

I'm a CREATIVE and LEARNER.
Whether through writing, music, or now coding, the sense of constant curiosity and dynamic
thinking to problem solve or bring into fruition an abstract idea, are values I admire and strive towards for myself and my team.

Having worked as an IT Business Analyst, I experienced the chasm in expectation
and communication between the business development and technology sides of large-scale projects.
Carrying the business acumen to know what questions to ask, how to communication expectations,
and how to better liaison information between technical and business teams can serve as a huge asset.

As a Writer and Journalist, storytelling - both written and spoken - has been a huge asset and passion
in my past experience. Often trivialized, transparent and effective communication is a skill that
can immensely facilitate working in teams or relaying a message to clients.
Whether for technical writing or in giving presentations, I can contribute to the technical community with eloquence.

Having been the social media editor accounts for 3 different media outlets, I can confidently say there's
a difference in using social media for personal uses and using it intentionally for a business.
With social media becoming integral to building any brand or business, my knowledge of navigating different channels
and formulating strategic social media plans can serve as a unique asset.
