About
With a Bachelor of Arts in English Language and Literature from the University of California, Davis, I have cultivated a diverse career path that blends creativity with technical expertise. Currently, I serve as a Brand Storyteller at Media Flower Consulting LLC, where I specialize in crafting compelling brand narratives for various platforms. My previous role as a Senior Information Security Analyst at Nano Banc honed my skills in vendor management and cybersecurity communication, overseeing a comprehensive vendor lifecycle for over 200 vendors. I also have experience as a Certified Pharmacy Technician at CVS Health, where I managed patient insurance billing for COVID-19 vaccines. My early career included a position as a Graphic Design Assistant at LibreTexts, contributing to brand style guides and social media strategies. I leverage AI tools for brainstorming and proofreading, ensuring transparency and client consent in all processes.
