As a dedicated worker in a fast growing non-profit, I wore many different hats during my time at Animal Place. I coordinated all outreach events, including: exhibiting opportunities, presentations for relevant community events, sanctuary tours, and small to large-scale celebration events. I developed, executed, and evaluated strategies to improve online reach, engagement and activity, as well as monitored online platforms daily to identify, interpret, and maintain supporter engagement. I also brought the Animal Place Facebook page from 5k followers to 130k followers.

I was the mouthpiece for Mimomito and worked with local media outlets, such as Good Day Sacramento, Sacramento News and Review, Midtown Monthly and Sactown Magazine, to gain publicity and spread blog ideas. I collaborated with local and national design groups, such as Dwell, Atomic Ranch, and Apartment Therapy, to promote historical preservation awareness and strengthen the modernist community. I also developed the most popular section of the blog using high quality photography to highlight homes and modern design in our local community, bringing page views from 300 to 3,000 per day.
