Created digital content and programming strategies to support and promote telecasts on MSG Networks of the New York Knicks, New York Rangers, New York Islanders, New Jersey Devils, Buffalo Sabres, New York Red Bulls, New York Giants and numerous award-winning original programs. I led content direction and programming strategies for a website serving more than 2 million yearly users and between 27K-250K followers and subscribers on various social media channels, including Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. The most important factor of my work was that our content was engaging and original, ensuring we built loyalty with our fans. To drive this, I collaborated with cross-functional teams to look at ways to align our content with the live game telecasts and award-winning original programming. My team included full-time employees and freelance contractors.

Prior to my career with MSG Networks, I was a Website Producer/Coordinator for the New York Rangers and a Business Development Assistant/Intern for the National Hockey League.When I started with MSG Networks, I was responsible for all digital and interactive content for Tri-State sports audiences, including curating information and identifying opportunities to improve the user experience. I also conducted interviews with talent, optimizing the transcripts to ensure alignment with SEO strategies. During this time, I produced video and audio packages for eight major sports teams, as well as coordinated content development and recording of three podcasts (“This Week in Hockey;” “CenterCourt;” and “Batt’r Up!”). To ensure I understood our audience’s needs, I stayed up to date on what was happening in fan communities with all the major sports teams in the region, as well as for teams from local high schools, colleges, and universities.
