About

A recent graduate from The University of Georgia with a Bachelors of Business Administration in Marketing, I have gained valuable experience through internships at SAP, Catalyst Venture Capital, Lookout, and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. At SAP, I supported marketing material creation and execution, managed blog posts, and collaborated with cross-functional teams. During my time at Catalyst Venture Capital, I assisted in discovering startups for potential investment and conducted research in customer experience. At Lookout, I managed digital and traditional marketing efforts and assisted in event preparation. My role at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services involved dynamic communication and interpersonal skills for COVID-19 contact tracing. Additionally, I have experience as a Creative Program Assistant at Little Characters Theatre Troupe. My diverse experiences have honed my skills in marketing, research, event coordination, and program management.
