J. R. | Paladin Los Angeles Candidate
Management Consultant, Project Manager & Writer
Available For:
Contract, Freelance, Direct Hire, Consulting
Ideal Position:
My cross-disciplinary skill set (strategic planning, project management, marketing and writing) combines creativity with analytical capability, and my ideal opportunity leverages this capability. With a background in traditional and digital entertainment and technology, I bring a perspective which is increasingly useful in our interconnected world.
Ideal Environment:
I thrive in creative, fast-paced environments which reward entrepreneurial, proactive behavior and allow workers to bring all of their talents to bear. While I typically assume leadership roles, I enjoy the collaboration process as part of a team and I appreciate learning new things from others. I embrace challenges, adapt to change and persevere
Past Experience:
For the past decade I have operated a boutique consulting practice, working primarily with start-up and early stage companies that required assistance with business or strategic plans, marketing (both strategy and copy writing), or project management/operations. I have held executive responsibilities (P&L included) and both built and led teams.
Currently:
I'm currently working with a well-known Hollywood producer writing a business plan for a media venture which will be seeking a substantial sum of outside investment (likely international) to finance a slate of films and other entertainment projects. In order to achieve our goals, we must present a vision that is credible and compelling, yet unique.
Additional:
I'm currently in the process of working towards PMP certification. As a project manager, I have experience with Waterfall and Agile/Scrum methodologies and associated project documentation. I'm active in social media and maintain a professional and self-development blog inspired by my love of martial arts and key wisdom traditions I've assimilated.
