What do you do?

As a Senior Project Manager at SEEK, I have a very broad range of responsibilities. I provide a strategic and structural viewpoint for research designs, seeing the whole picture rather than pieces. I am the keeper of project timelines and resource management; develop qualitative questionnaires for each project and manage the logistical planning.

What's your background?

After graduating from University of Cincinnati with a BA in Communication + Public Relations, I became an event planner for a local event planning business where I found my passion for timelines, logistical planning and management. I started working at SEEK in 2014 and over the years have worked in a variety of industries. I love going into work each and every day knowing that there is going to be a new challenge to solve.

Favorite book, quote or song?

Just be a good person, love who you can, help where you can, give what you can.

Something you’ve found inspiring?

I recently found a quote that my deceased grandpa wrote down on a piece of scrap paper: 

"Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body but rather to skid in sideways, totally wore out, shouting 'holy shit, what a ride'!"
