Content Producer

I'm a news content producer wanting to make the move back into a marketing and communications role in the outdoor lifestyle industry. I come with ten years of broadcast production experience and two years of marketing experience in the snow sports industry. 

While working in snow sports, my main role was to produce content. I shot photos and video to create social media ads, newsletters, promotional videos, and other material. I maintained websites and worked directly with ski resorts on any joint ventures. 

Even though I only have two years of experience with an official "Marketing" title, my role in News is, at its core, a marketing role. I take a TV station's branding and find ways to express it through content that helps retain and expand viewership. Similar to marketing, I research and create content that’s appealing and engaging to our target audiences. Then, I find ways to showcase that content across multiple media platforms to reach our company goals.

I enjoy the excitement and constant evolution in a newsroom but, I don’t love News. I thoroughly enjoyed being a Marketing & Communications Assistant and working on more focused content that's lifestyle-oriented.
