Office Assistant

City of Laredo Parks and Recreation - AquaticsMay 2024 - Sep 2024 • 5 mosDuring my time as an employee for the City of Laredo, I served as an Office Assistant for the Parks and Recreation Department's Aquatics Division. In this position, I was dealt the responsibility of providing both customer service and support for the largest pool in the city while maintaining clerical duties after public hours. Other than ensuring that all attendance at the pool was accurate alongside the corresponding tender count, I had the responsibility of transferring up to $1,200 per day after public hours to begin a deposit process. During the summer of 2024 I have increased profits for the pool by over 20% by ensuring my deposit process was accurate and honest. Though clerks may be viewed as average peons within the Parks and Recreation department, I gained valuable experience that allowed me to be better at maintaining client-service relations, increasing gross revenue for the largest public pool in Laredo, and providing both my clients and coworkers a positive work environment.

Freelance Graphic Designer and Video Editor

Cinco A DesignJan 2021 - Mar 2024 • 3 yrs 3 mosIn this remote role, I undertook the challenge of embracing a freelance workload while completing my undergraduate degree. I built up a rapport with several clients across the United States with interests in creating digital content without the skills or time needed to dive into the creator space full time. We dedicated time to developing a brand across online media that they would want to share towards their audiences. With a vision in mind, I devoted myself to creating personalized content in the form of short form videos, social media graphics, and other forms of digital art for each client to use as they saw fit. In one case, I took an account and raised their engagement by over 200% through the production of videos that were released at specific intervals of time. These initial engagements yielded a 30% increase in cross platform engagement from social media platforms like TikTok and YouTube to live streaming platforms like Twitch. During this role, I have become incredibly well versed in Adobe Suite programs such as Photoshop, Lightroom, Premiere Pro, and After Effects, while also gaining the foundations to utilize 3D modeling software like Blender to up the production value of projects for my creators.

I developed many positive relationships with customers during my time here and it was overall a very positive experience.
