Karola Trockenbrodt

There aren't many things that can grow a company the way that trust and dependability can, and I pride myself in being so dedicated to both. I can't help but radiate my positive energy onto anyone I cross paths with. I truly just want us all to succeed and will go out of my way to ensure that.

To keep myself balanced and gratified I work on my career. After working in a profession in Germany for many years, it is not enough for me to work in a job requiring only a constant level of skills. I believe one is never done learning and my personal development is my way to ensure planned, organized, and skilled work performance.

I had the opportunity to work closely with all other departments of administration since the team of the German International School Chicago is rather small, and got to know many aspects of possible office labor. I have been responsible for HR related tasks, accounting, purchasing, holding presentations, negotiating vendor contracts, maintaining records, all in a confidential manner. Besides the office work I’m the main contact for all our constituents and for all kinds of matters.
