I am a Creative Pro at Apple World Trade Center, a with a focus on art and design. My specialty is realistic portraits. I’m leading training sessions and helping individuals get more from Apple products. I am also a voiceover actor, available for commercials, animation, audiobooks, narration, and e-learning.Previously, I was a top performer at Apple Fifth Avenue and Apple Downtown Brooklyn for just over 9 years, honing my teaching and presenting skills, guiding learning through workshops and as an internal trainer alongside my duties as a Back of House Specialist.As part of the Operations team at Apple Fifth Avenue, I demonstrated my ability to express myself clearly and effectively, both in written and oral interactions with others, and particularly enjoyed teaching customers about Apple products in the workshop environment. I served as a daily resource to the Red Zone, a mentor to my peers on the Operations and Workshop teams, and valued my regular communications with my Store Leaders and managers. As a Back of House Specialist, I thrived in Fifth’s energetic environment, sharpening my judgement and my ability to make quick decisions.I have more than 15 years of experience in writing for radio (specifically for syndication), and copyediting. My expertise is in writing music and entertainment news in a clear, concise format for broadcast, a skill I refined while working for MTV and ABC News Radio in New York City.In my 9 years at MTV, I interviewed numerous stars in music, TV, and movies, and many of those interviews have been featured on MTVNews.com. I earned the nickname “Eagle-eye Gottlieb” from my co-workers for my copyediting skills.My work has been published in the book “Writing Scripts for Television, Radio, and Film” by Edgar E. Willis and Camille D’Arienzo, and I graduated from the Center for the Media Arts with a degree in broadcast announcing.
