• Worked closely with Media and Marketing team to develop and launch Social Media programs on our channels. Involved in brainstorming sessions, contributing ideas, research data and insights about our channels.

• Worked closely with hired agencies to create messaging around programs, incorporate these posts into our social media calendar, launch applications, and help choose and contact contest winners.

• Design banners, write code, launch and troubleshoot apps, format page layouts, edit photo and videos for use on our social media channels. Cut company costs since I am able to perform these minimal tasks in-house rather than having to outsource work to an agency or freelancer.
