Alex Kidwell Email and Phone Number

For over 6 years I've been learning and improving photo + video content, while also growing my network of connections. After a few successful years assisting with media on local tours, I've since worked on media teams for multiple music festivals and directly with a number of touring artists on their stops in the midwest. The decision to take the leap into running my own media business was difficult, but has been rewarding. I have experience in lowlight/concert settings, as well as portraits (press shots, maternity, engagement, weddings, etc.). Not only am I familiar with working on larger media teams, but am comfortable assisting in leading/planning content for events as well (have degrees/experience in Marketing and Sales).My work ethic, quick turnaround, and willingness to learn help me stand apart. No matter the event or shoot, you can trust you'll be in great hands.View my website (undergoing updates) at: www.AK47-Media.comMy Background: I grew up in the Kansas City, Missouri area and graduated in 2016 from the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. There I majored in Marketing with a Certificate in Sales earned from the UNL College of Business' Center for Sales Excellence (CSE). In the fall of 2015 I was honored to be selected as a member of the CSE's inaugural class, which provided hands-on sales experience throughout the Lincoln/Omaha business communities. This helped me transition into the professional world with a much better understanding of how to best satisfy customers' needs. From there I joined Sandhills Global as a Sales Representative focused on assisting business in General Aviation with both online and print marketing in addition to designing and launching websites. I traveled monthly to Georgia, Alabama, and Florida to service existing accounts and prospect/land new business. After learning a lot about the business world and myself in those few years, I decided to move to Omaha where I currently live with my (now) wife Mia and our two cats. This brought along a career change where I found Spreetail, an ecommerce business. I started as a Vendor Manager and after a year, transferred to a newer department to help grow and develop the team there. I spent 2 full years on the Market Research team and ended my time with the company as a Senior Market Research Specialist. I left the company in September of 2022 to pursue media opportunities and build my own business.2021 StrengthsFinderConsistency - Achiever - Activator - Context - Discipline2012 StrengthsFinderPositivity - Woo - Competition - Maximizer - Adaptability
