This spectacular event was created using innovative business strategies and multiple brilliant minds.Multi-tasked to deliver two top-performing night shows each night after receiving a second show and set of involved responsibilities in Austin, TX mid-contract. I worked closely with management and leadership teams in each market that I was broadcast in to perform business analytics; developing new insights and investigating past performance history to continually improve ratings and guide future decision-making. I was also involved in a passion project, "The Breakaway Tour" -> a music intensive 'positivity tour' that I partnered with a local Latin music duo 'Rey y Kaye' on. Together, we strategically planned and executed a series of profound events that accomplished the following:Authentically connecting with the largest and most diverse set of high school students possible, all across Sacramento, by crashing their lunch hours with an exclusive "mini concert" right on campus. Through personal connection, live musical performances, and honest, uplifting speeches our small team successfully encouraged many young students to aim higher, believe in themselves, and achieve their dreams while remaining hopeful and positive about the collective future we're all responsible for making better together.*Being helpful and making a genuine difference in people's lives, especially young and/or troubled lives, is a passion I pursue whenever possible.

The brand that is Ryan Seacrest, which reaches billions of people across all demographics on average, was run by a very small team of passionate future experts that worked together to shape a large portion of the future of entertainment. I learned to interview artists, realize and expand upon potentiality, produce high quality work in an exceptionally fast-paced environment while meeting strict deadlines, and became a true multimedia expert in the making. I was also responsible for collecting social media / client campaign statistics, then assisted with data analytics to improve upon overall performance and expand our realm of possibilities for fostering authentic engagements. Live reporting during nationally syndicated events also chiseled my delegation skills as prioritizing tasks while taking nonstop direction from superiors during periods of constant change and heightened excitement was mandatory, regardless of your title. We all quickly learned to work as a team and delegate amongst ourselves successfully.All of the job’s necessary skill sets - including the ability to learn code, mastering PhotoShop + Excel, and writing in HTML format - were honed relentlessly over the course of our semester at RSP. As a result, I’m confident there is almost no job I cannot learn to do. Show less
