Previously, I have worn many hats—from managing operations in financial services to leading customer success initiatives in technology and aviation. These roles have sharpened my skills in leadership, process improvement, and client relationship management. Notably, my tenure in financial services included managing portfolios for high-value clients and delivering educational seminars to promote financial literacy in underserved communities.
