Here's several of the projects I've worked on
Paula Sands' retirement
Paula Sands, a mainstay in Quad Cities television for 41 years, announced her retirement. As a Quad Cities native, I grew up watching Paula Sands Live, so getting to work alongside Paula was an experience I'm very lucky to have had. I benefited from her mentorship.
​
During this special Paula Sands Live episode I worked behind the scenes at KWQC TV6 to capture the reactions and moments on set the second Paula made the announcement. My job was to share these pictures, posts and web stories to the KWQC website, news app and social media.
​
In December, during Paula's final newscast, the Paula Sands Live set was named the Paula Sands Studio.
​
Today, Quad Cities Live with Morgan Ottier and Kyle Kiel is shot on this set.
Iowa Caucuses
In my role as a digital producer during the Iowa Caucuses, I was responsible for managing our OTT / Digital Desk and live stream the night of the Iowa Caucuses while at KWQC TV6. I worked in accordance with the digital director and reporters to host live streamed interviews, monitor social media, write web articles, and send push notifications with timely updates.

​
My digital coverage of Crossover at Kinnick received the most engagement on a social media post for the entire 2023 year at KWQC.
​
I generated 7K on engagement including likes and love reactions, 802 shares and 572 comments.
