Throughout my career, I have gained valuable work experience in the fields of marketing, communication and media production through professional writing, editing, photography, social media, videography, website content management and design. As Butler University’s senior news content manager, I have crafted internal pieces for the university’s Stories site as well as news releases geared for external media exposure. Over the months, the pieces have garnered earned media presence worth thousands. This position continued to enhanced my customer relationship management experience through Salesforce Marketing Cloud.

Prior to Butler, I held the internal communications specialist role for IUPUI within the IU Communications Studio. My primary tasks included writing stories, producing the visuals, and sending weekly e-newsletters to more than 30,000 students, faculty, staff, community members, and media representatives. Pieces were developed for IU Bloomington, IUPUC, IU Fort Wayne, and other regional campuses, too.

Before my move to Indianapolis, I built the foundation of my career experience in Lafayette and West Lafayette, Indiana. I served as the communications and media specialist for the Purdue University College of Science for almost five years, where I wrote, edited and shot photographs for the college’s alumni magazine, e-newsletters and news releases. I helped increase the college’s social media presence on Twitter, Instagram, YouTube and Facebook as well as maintaining content on Science.purdue.edu. I also designed presentations and wrote speeches for the College of Science’s deans. Before the jump to academia, I was a reporter, blogger, and videographer at the Lafayette Journal & Courier. For more than 12 years, I wrote and edited thousands of stories, shot and edited numerous videos and photographs, and hosted a podcast.

My writing and video content have earned state and national awards. My work with Purdue Science’s Insights alumni magazine received two American Advertising Awards. At the Journal & Courier, I won first place Hoosier State Press Association and Associated Press awards for stories and videos.
