BIO:
While working as a Stage Manager I have been expected to oversee each area of production and use meetings and conversations to help keep the show on the right track. I have been expected to oversee groups of over 100 people to help ensure that the correct procedures are being followed and that timeliness is being focused on as well. I have assisted with running countless meetings and helping to balance multiple aspects in major projects while focusing on email and Zoom as primary communication methods. I have been known to help assist during difficult conversations to help focus on the professionalism that is necessary for work conversations.
RELEVANT EXPERIENCE:
Stage Manager, Project Manager, Event Planner
HOW I COMMUNICATE:
I normally need more guidance in the beginning of a project, but once I’m more comfortable working with a group then I am able to have check ins or emails to clarify confusion. Once I receive a project I’ll process the information and then send the list of concerns that I would like to talk about for further confirmation, which can be done in an email or slack format.
FEEDBACK:
I prefer to focus on feedback through a Zoom or Phone Call format. I find it helpful to set the topic of what area exactly the feedback will focus on prior to the meeting to allow for all parties to be on the same page.
PERSONALITY TYPE:
Enneagram Type 6
WORKING STYLE:
I like a good outline upfront so that I know what style of project that I am working on to allow for me to feel more confidant in my work.
