What do you like most about your job?

I love bringing organization to chaos in order to help others succeed. Bonus points for sustainability and scalability of processes! I’m excited to learn more about the commercial painting and construction spaces and find out how I can be best utilized.

What is your favorite job throughout your lifetime?

The summer after my sophomore year of college, I worked as an Student Advisor for new student orientations. The job was part camp counselor, part academic advisor, and part cheerleader. The final week was the International Student Orientation where I got to meet folks from all over the word and introduce them to Boston.

What makes you happy?

Making other people happy. I’m the person who’s not having a good time at a party unless everyone else is having a good time. Hospitality is one of my personal Core Values, so being of service to others is a major part of who I am.

What do you like to do for fun or hobby?

Travel! My husband and I love to explore new places, cultures, and cuisines.
