      Working at StudioTEN was one of the most amazing experiences of my life! StudioTEN is a unique venture, turning the Creative Services Department of NBC 10 onto a full service production company. I joined the department in a new role, Events Marketing Manager, responsible for producing station events, overseeing the NBC 10 street team, and managing community partnerships. As the Events Marketing Manager, I lead the development and execution of special events supporting NBC 10 and client of StudioTEN Creative Group. I served as company representative at station events leading the execution of events, working with clients and partners, and troubleshooting as needed. Also responsible for coordinating all pre and post event promotion, staffing, and securing all support materials for events. As the events marketing manager, I also created the NBC 10 street team, a station wide promotions team that served as a further extension of our marketing and promotions efforts. The team also served as an early opportunity for NBC 10 to identify new and diverse talent. Lastly, I assumed several other duties as projects required including managing the department production schedule, launching a reorganization of NBC social media accounts, and producing both web and on-air promotional spots. Show less Working on the assignment desk was one of the most challenging positions I've ever had. In this position, I worked under amazing pressure to support the production of news shows across fall day parts. As an assignment editor, I worked in a front line journalistic role, executing coverage assignments, updating story details, and supporting field crews. I regularly worked under tight deadlines and breaking news situations, performing additional tasks on the fly. In this role, I became especially adept at talking with tip callers, following up leads, and developing exclusive and compelling content. Lastly, I developed the WCAU Daybook. The daybook was a one-sheet encapsulation of pending court cases, leads on stories, and other newsworthy events in the DMA. Show less
