Senior Director of Operations

Elite Career Education and Internship Matching for International Students in the U.S.

I have 10+ years of experience in Strategy & Operations with both management consulting and entrepreneurial background. I offer a proven track record in designing and implementing strategies/ operational plans to drive new business opportunities, revenue growth, and efficiency gains. In previous positions, I worked cross-functionally implementing management objectives and key results (OKRs), generating business insights through data analytics, leading programs, and new product launches, developing, and executing strategic plans to achieve business goals. I love to solve complex business problems by building great teams, developing partnerships, and effectively communicating initiatives to leadership and operational levels. I'm a travel enthusiast who loves exploring new cultures - 12 countries and counting - and an avid reader. I volunteer mentoring Brazilian students and young professionals, helping them develop their ideas/careers to create impact. I also love meeting people to learn new things and discuss exciting business ideas. If you want to take an impactful idea off the ground or talk about alternative ways to grow a business, I'd love to connect and grab some coffee! Feel free to reach me at rmpenna@bu.edu.
