Austin Elbert Email & Phone Number

I started out in the communications industry working at my local radio stations (KRTI & KCOB) as a production assistant. There I was able to learn valuable skills like audio production and web writing. Afterwards I attended St. Ambrose University for two years, employed as a work study student, where I would produce new content for the University's (now defunct) television channel SAUtv. While at St. Ambrose I also managed the tape archives. I transferred to Grand View in the fall of 2022 and was quickly hired at Target as a Food and Beverage Expert. Working at Target 1767 in Ankeny, I gained skills such as organization, time management, and customer service. Over the summer, I was given the opportunity to work as the production intern for Lutheran Church of Hope - West Des Moines. At the church, I assisted in editing projects, the weekly podcast, and filmed various events. More recently, I was hired at KCCI-8 as a part-time editor / photojournalist where I am in-charge of editing most, but not all of the video seen in a newscast on the weekends and Mondays.
