I’m not The Most Interesting (Wo)man in the World, but some of my job experiences might make you think I’m talking in memes.
I’ve written strategies and campaigns, re-imagined workflows, built intranets, managed apps and advertising, led rebranding efforts, designed websites and publications. I have experience in project management, art direction, staff management and development, media relations, copy editing, art direction, and have taught myself applications and coding in order to keep my organization moving forward.
I have experience in bringing about digital transformation. Weeks after my transition off the print design desk, I was leading my newsroom in developing digital-first breaking news workflows. I’ve been on Facebook and Twitter almost since they existed, jumping at the opportunity to create branded accounts for my newsrooms when upper management didn’t see the point. And when I saw a small staff struggling with wonky technology on my first day at a new job, I suggested migrating the entire organization to Google Apps for Business; a few months later, I was doing just that.
I have led rebranding efforts and implementation of a new website while working to transform the digital mindset of an organization on the rise. I’ve also led training and given presentations to help coworkers learn or best utilize new or emerging communications technology.
I have written and executed strategic coverage plans for simultaneous operation of more than 45 branded social media accounts and mobile apps representing nine newsrooms located across the greater Los Angeles area.
I’m hungry for creative projects that require finding a whole new box to think outside of while tapping into new technologies; and I thrive in organizations that embrace change as a way of life — or at least acknowledge they should. I’ve even brought about the creation of my own job — more than once.
Still not convinced I should be working for you? Reach out, and I’ll gladly send you a reference list of people who have been/will be sorry to see me go.
