Leadership & community

Leadership

My work has never stayed inside one lane. Alongside enterprise technology contracting, I have led community programs, counseled students and families, worked in legal advocacy and managed deadline-driven client transactions. Each experience strengthened how I communicate, negotiate, organize and lead.

Student leadership in practice

Counseling was only part of the job.

At Jim Elliot High School, I worked across the student experience — academic counseling, emotional support, parent conversations, academic probation, testing and special programs. I also created and led a mentorship program for girls focused on navigating high school and preparing for what came next.

I proctored the SATs and directed graduation end-to-end, including academic awards, gowns, the ceremony program and its design, slideshows and presentations, speaker coordination and event details. It was equal parts counseling, operations, communication and care.
