About

Graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Drama and Dramatics/Theatre Arts from the University of California, Davis in 2018, I have since built a diverse career in entertainment and customer service. As a Dance Instructor at Eleve School of Dance since April 2021, I developed social media strategies that boosted engagement by 30% and taught various dance styles. My role as Entertainment Coordinator at Sesame Place San Diego from January 2022 to December 2023 involved coordinating events, managing logistics, and negotiating contracts. I also served as a Hall A Stage Associate at VidCon in June 2023, ensuring smooth stage operations. My earlier roles include Guest Services Associate at European Wax Center and Guest Arrival Supervisor at SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment, where I managed staff and provided exceptional customer service.
