About me
I am a dynamic Producer, now in my 5th year of professional experience in
the Advertising Industry. I seek to leverage top-notch managerial and
organizational skills to boost efficiency. Amongst other things, my current
role, at an Intergrated Agency, is to organize, and direct the completion of
projects while ensuring that these projects are on time, on budget, and
within scope. I believe one of my greatest skills is to adapt quickly to a
constantly changing environment.
