What started off as in internship turned into a production assistant position. As an intern, I was the go-to person for booking guests, venues, writing segments and work on specialty shoots. Eye on the Bay is San Francisco specific, and it was great connecting with the community. When I began assisting with production, I sat with hosts and producers and pitched ideas for various segments. I also created social media specific media for marketing purposes across different platforms (Twitter, YouTube, KPIX.com).
