Info

As a dynamic professional with a proven record in project management and data-driven decision-making, I bring a unique blend of strategic thinking and hands-on experience to the table. My proficiency spans across project design and execution, risk management, communication campaigns, and vendor relationship management.

In the marketing sector, I have honed skills in branding, employer branding, demand generation, social media marketing, and enhancing employee engagement. This has involved overseeing remote teams, coordinating with a network recruitment professionals across 12 countries, and managing corporate-wide talent and employer brand strategies with budgets up to $21M.

In line with my project management abilities, I am also deeply dedicated to fostering diversity and inclusion in the workplace. This commitment is reflected through my participation in various employee resource groups at Booking.com and my decade-long leadership in a diversity organization at BreakTheGlassCeiling.com.

My track record includes forming strategic alliances with businesses and non-profit organizations in many countries, crafting corporate brand recognition strategies using market analyses, and executing talent acquisition plans for scaling workforces across various sectors. I am well-versed in Agile and Scrum methodologies and hold a Lean Six Sigma Blackbelt certification. I am always ready for new challenges and opportunities for growth and learning.

Please feel free to connect with me.

    As a chaplain in training, I assist individuals in processing life events and deepening their spirituality. I help them find inner motivation, trust, hope, inspiration, strength, and zeal, and work with them to foster spiritual growth, reflection, and well-being.

    My approach involves two main processes to help patients affirm their identity and worldview. The first is personalizing their worldview by helping them make it their own and integrating new perspectives into their thinking. The second is developing a worldview that helps them engage with life, clarify their values, and move forward with purpose.

    I am currently raising funds for the San Francisco Night Ministry, a multi-faith organization that provides spiritual care and community support on the streets, on the phone, and at night. Their mission is to offer care to everyone, regardless of faith or no faith, without judgment, conversion, or agendas. The ministry offers community chaplaincy services and crisis intervention, serving the human and spiritual needs of people in San Francisco during the darkest hours.

    Please consider donating to this registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization to help make a difference and support those in need. Thank you for your contribution.

    ------------------
    4.5 years full-time of graduate courses and research led to the making of my amalgamated degree from the Claremont Colleges, UC Berkeley, The Graduate Theological Union and the Vatican doing a Masters of Divinity focusing on Applied Ethics, Islamic Education, and Jewish Education. I was able to do field research in Rome, Israel, SE Asia, Australia, Eastern Europe, Israel, and Turkey understanding how religion affected culture and business practices. A major component to this was ethics - the way people's religion affected their business practices.
