Eager to transition out of publishing, I am seeking a role that allows me to utilize my organization and interpersonal strengths in a fast-paced environment. Turn/River seems like the perfect opportunity.

My role at Gallery Books/Simon & Schuster was a blend of project management and administrative support. While balancing tight deadlines, I built rapport with a diverse range of personalities from fellow assistants to the SVP of our imprint to high-profile authors. A former colleague once said that I “ruled with a velvet hammer” — a description I wear with pride. I believe deadlines can be met with both clarity and kindness.

As a child, my favorite part of going back to school was choosing a new planner, and I haven’t changed. In my last role, I kept deadlines for multiple projects at once on track using a trio of tools: a physical planner, digital calendars, and sticky notes. No deadlines slipped through the cracks.

Why is this relevant? So many values ingrained in me as a theatre kid are essential in the professional world. Over fifteen years of performing taught me teamwork, accountability, clear communication, and adaptability. Quick learning and taking direction in a pinch? Second nature.
