Bio
Melissa K.
Victoria was both a student and a teaching assistant of mine while at Lambda School. I worked closely with Victoria during the visual design curriculum, where she was a mentor to our part-time UX design students. With those that were struggling with basic design principles, she took the extra time to make sure everyone was getting the feedback that they needed to succeed. This involved working closely with me to understand expectations while providing constructive feedback on her students' work. As a student, she is strong at iteration and experimentation. She proactively asks for feedback while making sure her designs meet her user's needs. I know that Victoria's iterative approach and collaboration skills would be an asset to anyone's team.

Vickie was my Team Leader during my time at Lambda School. She was super responsive and helpful, even during off hours and if she didn’t know any answer to something, she was always very quick to find the answer from the appropriate person. Vickie would be an awesome asset to any team- she puts her heart and soul into everything she does. She is such a hard worker and given the opportunity, I would be lucky to have her as a teammate again.

Jul 2015 - Aug 2020
After 20+ years in the creative arts as a singer, songwriter and theater professional, I learned to intuitively asses what is missing from a particular work. My time as a performer and writer was spent working both alone and in groups. While working alone, I developed an ability to stay self-driven and on task, meeting deadlines without outside accountability. In group settings, I focused on truly collaborating, designing, and coordinating projects with my partners or cast. For my own projects I learned to creatively design my own CD Covers, book covers, event posters and personal websites. As a self published author, I refined my research skills, organizational skills and storyboard process in addition to flexing my creative writing muscles. Show less

The things I've learned from teaching are too numerous to mention but if having to choose, I would say it is the ability to "read the room and make adjustments". It's not that far removed from my life in the creative arts as I had to do similarly in that role as well. I also believe that being a teacher has allowed me to showcase myself as a leader and articulate myself with confidence. I’ve developed strong creative problem-solving, organizational, and communication skills. I also believe it's what makes me ideal as a project manager/coordinator. Juggling multiple personality types, skill sets, and deadlines while keeping everyone focused and motivated is a strength I have in abundance. Show less
