Leadership & Communication

While  operating Meffert Web Hosting LLC,  I frequently have to take a leadership role in order to keep the business operating.  For example, I consistently contact clients in order to get website updates to prevent client websites from falling out of date.  I also  communicate with new or potential clients to help them decide what benefits they want or need for their website and how my company can help them achieve those benefits.

I also currently work at the UW- Arboretum in Madison, Wisconsin where I am in charge of updating and maintaining their website.  This requires me to take charge and get information about upcoming events along with creating new functionality for the website in order to reduce paper usage and increase organization.
