My academic journey started in March 2020 after fifteen-plus years with the same organization. The company was a startup business that has grown tremendously year over year. I evolved with the company and held different positions throughout my time there, but I ended with my favorite, Director of Sales Operations. The department was the bridge between clients placing their orders, production to fulfillment, delivery to the client, and shipping worldwide. 

The reason for my departure was that I was asked to pick someone from my team for a layoff, and I chose myself so that I could continue my education. My future career goals are to take advantage of my experience and education and get a career coinciding with my undergraduate in Organizational Leadership/Project Management, and my Graduate degree, Masters in Business Administration.

This portfolio is a reminder of my transformation throughout my education, proving that my academic growth has perfectly complemented my professional experience.
