About Andrew Temkin

Empathetic and hardworking - that\'s how I describe myself professionally and personally. Specializing in marketing and operations in the tech industry, I love the versatility of my workday. From working on strategic planning one minute to coordinating ad placements the next, I enjoy being part of a team to reach a common goal. Most recently, I spent four years at Perry Street Software, a small mobile software company that specializes in dating apps for the LGBTQ+ community based out of New York City. While there, I rose rapidly through the ranks beginning as a part-time marketing and office assistant and concluding my tenure as a salaried Senior Marketing and Operations Manager. While overseeing the day-to-day operations of our small office, I managed all payables, receivables, and contracts. I relished the opportunity to serve as the go-to person for projects that required extreme attention to detail. My colleagues and bosses knew they could count on me to get the job done and get it right the first time. During my tenure, Perry Street Software grew from a multi-million dollar company to doubling its revenue. Its brand presence grew from 12k to 250k on Instagram channels alone. I also helped negotiate and oversee partnerships throughout the Arab world to support the LGBTQ community. I am proud of the impacts I made. While I began my career in the theatre industry, I am happiest now working in an intimate office environment where I have the opportunity to \"wear many hats\" and contribute to a greater cause.
