Director of External Affairs/National Communications Coordinator
-
May 2022 - May 2023
As National Communications Coordinator for LSU’S RHA, I represented the organization at official events at LSU as well as outside of the university. In this role, I collaborated with peer representatives from similar organizations to identify potential areas of improvement for LSU’s own RHA, as well as for the on-campus student body and implemented changes to better serve our members. I was a part of a group that managed and allocated thousands of dollars within the organization's annual budget, ensuring that resources were allocated efficiently and effectively. I also coordinated in-person and virtual delegations for conferences, representing the organization and strengthening relationships with external entities, while also keeping those in my region up to date on LSU’s RHA affairs. Additionally, I planned and executed events for groups of students and faculty, ensuring high levels of attendance and engagement. I provided weekly positional updates to the organization and helped with day-to-day operations. Show less

Delivery Assistant

Jun 2021 - May 2022
At Lowe's, pulling delivery orders from the receiving area and helping to account for daily inventory was an integral part of my role as a delivery truck assistant. After that was completed, I would help load the merchandise into delivery trucks in a secure manner. I also went out on deliveries with delivery truck drivers in order to help them carry and transport the merchandise, and I would help with moving the items into the customer's home and installing it. I was also often tasked with taking inventory throughout the store, working as a spotter for a forklift driver, operating machinery to move large equipment, customer service, and checking inventory for damage.
