Work History

Assistant Manager of Operations

Capes Shipping Agency
06.2022 - Current
  • I am currently the assistant manager of operations at Capes Shipping Agencies. My role is to make sure that all vessels come in and out of the port without any issues, while also seek to find new business for the Georgia Ports. I coordinate vessels from discharge/load port to berth at terminals from Charleston, Savannah, and Jacksonville. Daily, I send out invoices, vessel updates, and communicate with Customs and Border Protection, Pilots, Tugs, and terminals. This job has taught me how to handle difficult situations, time management and to be a leader among my colleagues.

Operations Agent

Host Agency
06.2019 - 06.2021
  • As an operations agent, my job is to coordinate vessels into the port and to be the main source of contact between the terminal and the vessel. Daily, my job consists of customer relations, finding new business, accounting, logistics, calling customs and border protection, tugs, pilots, line handlers and sending daily updates on the latest information for our vessels. I coordinate all information with the charters and owner, while providing solutions to any problems that may occur during vessel operations or outside of operations. This job has taught me everything about the maritime life and how vessels operate on a daily basis.

Cargo Surveyor

Control Union
- Current
  • As a cargo surveyor, my duties rely on me to inspect every vessel that comes to our port. This is a thorough inspection of the hold, that our product will be loaded into. In these inspections, I look for anything that could possibly contaminate our product. I also stay on the vessel to make sure that our loading of the product is going smoothly. I log everything and make sure everything is going perfect during our loading period, after I inspect the Vessel. This is where I currently work.

Intern

District Attorney’s Office - Athens, GA
01.2019 - 10.2019
  • As Intern for the Assistant District Attorney’s Jeff Kwiatkowski and Rebecca Fogal, my jobs included evaluating case files, writing case files, and providing witnesses lists in a timely manner. Routinely, I was asked to also make phone calls on the attorney’s behalf to request documentation from witnesses who may have had evidence as well as coordinating meetings with key individuals pertaining to the cases. I kept the Attorney’s organized while also providing them with the latest information that I received during trials.

Sales Representative

GNC
05.2017 - 08.2019
  • As a sales representative, I would make sure the customer was educated and assisted on all products they were trying to purchase. I would recommend products based on what they needed and make sure they would leave with a smile on their face. I enjoyed talking with people I have never met before and made sure they would leave satisfied.
