Originally hired to assist both the Sales and Marketing departments, as well as maintain all
merchandise, but quickly promoted to production and distribution team where I evolved my role
as Production Manager to a top 50 brewery in the nation:

coordinating and communicating new recipe techniques to brewers and cellarmen, and assessing new recipes for sales tiers

through.

Hired to perform data entry and general office administrative tasks and quickly grew responsibilities to own accounts receivables, accounts payable, customer engagement and support, online advertising
