Personal Summary

Hello,

I am seeking a leadership position with a professional hospitality service provider. I am excited to share my love of service and lifetime of education & experience performing in various service roles. I have purposely curated my professional portfolio to include all aspects of hospitality service, leadership, and management.

My primary goal is to continue updating my knowledge and experience in every facet of hospitality.  

Most recently, I served as an account administrator at a hospitality event staffing agency & mobile bartending company, reporting directly to the vice-president. 

I have served as a coordinator, logistics leader, and volunteer vendor at various events throughout Texas; including the San Antonio, M.L.K. Youth Summit 2012 & 2013, attended by over thousands of youth at Theodore Roosevelt H.S. & St. Philip's College, respectively.

I am currently involved in numerous community efforts, acting as a logistics manager and social media & digital marketing content creator. 

I have successfully overseen various professional digital platforms; from conception & design to official launch & beyond. 

While I have purposely cultivated my experience and education to include leadership training; I have continued to work in the field to remain informed about relevant needs & opportunities for growth.

I look forward to partnering with a company dedicated to service excellence and known for integrity & elegance. 

Thank you for your consideration.
