Johnny Nasello

I am a dual US and Italian citizen, residing in Italy. I can legally work in the US and in Europe.

• I crowdfunded and opened my own yoga and fitness studio in Portland, Oregon. As the owner-manager I developed team building skills and built the organization to a staff of seven.
• I created and manage online courses with various LMS Learning Management Systems.
• I partnered with a health and wellness resort, where I established extensive four and five week yoga teacher training courses. These programs generated significant revenue over a 4-year period.
• I managed teams of people in regional and international settings to achieve organizational goals.
• I have worked in a corporate environment where I cultivated back office technical skills, and interpersonal communication skills.

I have created online courses and membership portals on WordPress Learning Management Systems (LMS), and have a robust experience in marketing all of these programs and trainings with Facebook and Google ads, Google Business updates, SEO optimized blogs, newsletters, and social media.

I worked in a corporate environment that required strong time management and attention to detail, where I examined insurance claims, obtained medical information, and authored letters for legal review.

Personal qualities that are important to me include: honesty, dedication, determination, persistence, and sincerity.
