Operations Manager @ PostCurious

About

I'm a skillful project manager, operations expert, community builder, and designer. My approach to work is defined by efficiency and creativity, constantly seeking to answer the question: “How can we turn this into a game?". I firmly believe that the infusion of play and imagination into traditional frameworks not only inspires innovation, but also strengthens relationships and cultivates a more dynamic work environment. Through the lens of operations management and coordination, I have developed efficient systems and overseen operations in various sectors. From planning events and managing projects to facilitating communication, I excel in the behind-the-scenes work that ensures organizations run seamlessly. At the same time, I have never lost sight of my love for play, incorporating elements of game design and creative thinking into the way I approach problems. Whether it's designing imaginative universes, crafting challenging puzzles, or spearheading emergent storytelling, I bring a playful spirit to all that I do. Among my diverse interests, I'm particularly drawn to causes and organizations intent on fostering a positive impact. These include - but are not limited to - endeavors that promote mental health and disability justice, innovative non-traditional education, transportation justice, health and reproductive rights, queer and trans liberation, environmental advocacy, housing accessibility, racial justice, income equality, and the incorporation of meaningful and purposeful play into learning and community building.
