The Utah Foodie is a weekly radio show and podcast that tells the untold stories behind our state’s fast-growing food scene. The food business is tough: 9 in 10 restaurants fail, the margins are awful, and diners and food critics are harsh on review sites like Yelp. To go into this business by choice, you’d have to be crazy. That… or incredibly passionate, committed to the craft, and downright obsessed with providing a great culinary experience. Each week, we allow our listeners explore their food scene by publishing weekly stories and interviews from the owners and chefs behind the top restaurants and hidden hole-in-the-wall gems all across the state. The Utah Foodie is a local and independent podcast founded by Chase Murdock and produced by Ryan Samanka. The program is heard by more than 10,000 monthly listeners through iTunes, SoundCloud, Stitcher Radio, 90.9fm KRCL Listeners Community Radio of Utah, and theutahfoodie.com. Subscribe and discover your food scene on The Utah Foodie.As the Director of Marketing I oversee all social media channels, website content, and partnerships to expand the reach of each episode. Along with Chase and Ryan, we've developed the voice and brand of The Utah Foodie as a relatable resource for foodies throughout Utah.

Responsible for developing and fostering client relationships. I managed a team of social media writers, and oversaw the execution of contract fulfillment. I developed personal relationships with my clients, and collaborated with my social media team to design promotions and engaging content. Served as content editor, and worked with writers to develop and implement social media strategies. I was also responsible for the occasional campaign, Nicklemania trip, and was a vocal advocate for Thai food at lunch.

The Forum is a completely independent, student run newspaper. Every issue of the paper requires a combination of consistency in brand image, as well as new design for each article or spread. Issues are designed despite time constraints or other limitations, therefore improvisation is very important. Along with editing for consistency, I assisted writers with story creation, along with writing articles for the paper itself. I managed a 20 person staff, and served as the representative of The Forum to all students, and the Westminster administration. I gained leadership and management skills, and learned how to motivate a team under stressful and tight deadlines. I also oversaw design and content of both the newspaper and website, and pushed for consistency and accuracy.

Worked directly with the Student Life Office at Westminster College. We focused on creating campus communities, ensuring the safety of residents, and facilitating academic and personal development. I gained conflict resolution skills, improved leadership skills, and developing relationships with a variety of personalities in a high-trust environment. Worked with over 80 residents during my tenure.
