About

Graduating with a Bachelor of Science in Advertising and Sport Media Certificate from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in 2019, I have gained diverse experience in project management, marketing, and advertising. As a Project Manager at Riskonnect, Inc., I oversee and manage projects, ensuring their successful completion. Previously, as a Project Coordinator at Apotheco Pharmacy Group, I managed content writing, print marketing collateral, and promoted skincare products. Additionally, my role as an Account Manager at Midnight Oil AAF involved managing advertising students and liaising between clients and the agency. My experience also includes roles such as Illio Advertising Sales Associate/Illini Media Marketing Intern at Illini Media and Account Management Intern at TSMGI. These positions allowed me to develop skills in advertising sales, social media marketing, and sponsorship pitch deck creation. My passion for advertising and project management has been honed through these diverse experiences.
