About me
Theatre professional:I'm a well-rounded theater and film producer/manager with a degree in business administration. I've managed live events, sports teams, films, social events, volunteers, residential property, and other. I'm also a certified massage therapist and run my own small business. I've served on Boards of Directors.
A very positive personality and avid learner, I'm always willing to learn new skills and try something different. If you're looking for the person that stays calm in a crisis and can usually calm others too, here I am! My approach to most things is a combination of common sense, humor, and excellent pre-planning of what's within my control before an event so that it frees me to deal with the inevitable crises that come up during live events. I can quickly adapt to changes and think "on the fly." With excellent verbal and written skills, I can then communicate those changes to team members.
I'm a complete team player and always pitch in to help, as needed. Exceedingly detailed, I do my best to manage an organized project and, thus, prevent causing my team chaos and stress from lack of planning.
Additional skills:
Conversationally fluent in Italian.
