August 2020 - August 2024

Web Production & Content Developer
Dealer Inspire/Cars Commerce

At Cars.com, I played a key role in supporting high-volume web production for automotive dealerships nationwide. On average, I co-built 2 to 3 WordPress websites per week — that’s nearly 100 sites a year — to keep up with the constant flow of dealership demand. I created a fast, repeatable workflow using Salesforce dashboards, allowing me to work independently while staying efficient and organized.

Along the way, I developed a deep understanding of OEM brand standards to ensure every site hit the mark for both quality and compliance. Whether jumping between builds, troubleshooting, or refining internal processes, I embraced the “jack of all trades” mentality to keep projects moving in a fast-paced, ever-evolving environment.
