The City of Chicago
Working as a Video Producer in the Mayor's Press Office for World Business Chicago allowed me to grow professionally within an incredible environment. My focus for my time working on the Mayor's social accounts was to highlight and emphasize equitable economic growth throughout the City, but especially on the South and West sides using my short-form video storytelling, content creation and drone videography skills.
During my time as a Video Producer on the Digital team, I implemented the use of Instagram Reels to convey new events, activities, openings, resources, and celebrations which reached a majority of accounts on the platform that non-followers. My work for Instagram Reels amounted to an overall reach of 1.2M.
