  Intrawest Development Company

  Jan 2002 - Jan 2006

  Office Manager

  As the office manager everything in the office and facility were my responsibility. I was told to turn the office into a resort so when people walked into the suite it was like they were walking into a resort. When you walked off the elevator you walked onto carpet that was made and designed to feel like snow. As you turned the corner I had murals painted of our winter resorts Whistlers Mountain and Snowshoe Mountain. I also had my winter resorts send me two sky lift chairs that were out of commission and sent them out to be powder coated and covered which I hung by the ceiling as our guest chairs. That was the cold side of the house. Throughout the rest of the suite I had a boardwalk that was our walking path around the entire suite. Each area had its own theme. Office side of the house I made into beach shacks with screen doors that had been white washed, I brought in sand and had it molded around the offices and a huge sand castle on the wall. As you walked through there was an actual 9 hole putt putt golf course. I used carpet squares for the sand traps and turned the carpet in different directions so the ball would act as if it were in the sand and the water hazards were the same way. This was by far my most favorite and fun project. Show less

  Orangelake Resort

  Feb 2012 - Sept 2016

  Operations Coordinator

  My main responsibility was to assist the Director of Purchasing and Senior Director of Operations with just about anything they needed. My past experience allow me to be a greater asset to them than they had originally thought. I was the first point of contact for all vendors, customers and employees. I also set up a new Microsoft ERP P2P system and Bid System for all vendors and items. I was also responsible for creating all requisitions and purchase orders for retail, F&B and Operations. So I basically bought everything for the resort that a guest could purchase or want during their stay. I also had some accounts payable responsibility in reconciling, coding of GL accounts and correction for all invoices to ensure readiness for payment by the accounting division. Receiving of all service vendors as they delivered to the resort, coordinated all resets and inventory process. The point of sale system was also my responsibility to make sure all pricing and upc labels were entered into the system so when a guest purchased something it rang up correctly with no issues. During very busy receiving time I would go and help them receive the products in and make sure that they did not have a lot of issues. Some of the items that were purchased were very difficult to decipher when receiving them in and unless you purchased it you would have no idea how to receive it in. Show less

  C4 Advanced Tactical Systems, LLC

  Oct 2015 - now

  Office Manager/Facilities Manager/Safety Manager

  Office Manager: My first priority is to carry out the Office Managers position within C4 which covers greeting guests as soon as they arrive at the office. We are a secure facility so everyone needs to be checked in, cell phones locked up, badges created and emails sent to the employee they are here to see. Purchasing of all supplies, furniture and equipment and anything else someone may come up with that they need. I am also responsible for hiring in all service companies (cleaning, copier, food service, lawn service, office supplies company, furniture suppliers, service vendors on all production machines and equipment) if they are in the building doing some type of service I have hired them. I plan all C4 corporate events our electronic filing system and a company wide software conversion. I am also included in all meetings so that minutes can be taken. So since I am privy to just about everything here at C4 my level of confidentiality is enormous and I take that very seriously. We have anywhere from 500 to 1000 people that visit our facility every year I assist them in everything they may need either before, during and after their visits. Facilities Manager: As the facilities manager the building and all of its contents are my responsibility and to ensure that everything is working at 100 percent. Since I had a construction background with a previous employer when I was told we were building a new facility I volunteered to be the building coordinator everything new building. We finished July of 2018 the construction of a tilt wall constructed 75,000sq' facility. I was responsible for choosing all flooring, colors, furniture, everything that went into the building I made the decision on. Safety Manager: I am OSHA certified with the 30 hour class and just attended the updated course for workplace violence. Show less
