I oversaw daily editorial decisions as well as scheduling and executed social media, audience engagement, content, and brand strategies to appeal to key demographics and targets.Additionally, I served as an award-winning, investigative multimedia journalist on the news team, producing compelling enterprise stories that sparked change in the community. Through use of FOIA, court records, and developing strong relationships with sources, I was able to generate exclusive content for on-air and digital products, growing WDEL listenership and WDEL.com reach. At breaking news scenes, I acted swiftly to deliver timely and accurate live reports to keep the community up-to-date and routinely filed reports for the CBS Radio Network, heard on hundreds of stations nationwide. All stories were produced one-woman band-style, including use of photography and video to enhance visual storytelling.As editor-in-chief, I led all breaking news and special coverage initiatives, including ongoing coverage of the COVID-19 pandemic, creating a collection of 1,500+ uniquely local virus-related stories. I also focused on talent development, providing constructive feedback on story ideas and produced content and managed content partnerships with Philadelphia TV stations and outside content producers. During my time at the station, I also created "Del-AWARE" -- a locally produced news magazine/issue radio program, hosted "JetSet" -- a weekly travel feature, and "EducationWatch" -- a weekly local education segment. I also gave back to the community in which I live, helping raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for the Nemours Radiothon and thousands of dollars for WDEL's annual Feed-a-Friend to benefit local food pantries.
