Hi, I’m Elena. An experienced communications professional with a diverse skill set in project management, web design and management, digital marketing, event management, and executive and administrative support.
In 2017, I graduated from the University of California, Davis, with a Bachelor of Arts in Art Studio. Following graduation, I spent four years working in gallery administration and marketing. During this time, I developed and implemented strategies to enhance digital outreach efforts and boost artwork sales.
In 2022, I embarked on a new chapter of my career at UC Davis' Institute of the Environment, where I supported executive leadership in their various initiatives. As Strategic Communications Administrator, I'm responsible for organizing and promoting seminars, workshops, conferences, meetings, and symposiums, including the Institute’s seminar series. Additionally, I'm responsible for managing daily internal and external communications for the Institute executive staff and overseeing the management of the Institute's communication channels.
Throughout my career, I have successfully organized and managed over 100 workshops, conferences, seminars, and events. I also possess extensive experience in hosting Zoom meetings and webinars, accommodating guest counts ranging from 30 to 3,000.
I am passionate about leveraging my skills and experience to drive effective communication and successfully manage projects and events.
