    • Hockomock Area YMCA

      May 2018 - Sept 2019

      Tasked with creating promotional material using photography and videography to promote the summer camps at the YMCA. This helped parents connect with the camp life, and see their children engaging in activities during their camp day. Also aided in the marketing of the YMCA camps, which is the largest profit the YMCA makes during their year. I started as a Youth Sports Coach at my local Y, then as I got older I applied into the weight room position and applied for a camp job as well. I got both of these positions. Along with working at Camp Wiggi, I was certified as a lifeguard. Entrusted in creating engaging schedules and activities for the Camp Silver Lake of the Franklin YMCA. I supervised all activities and aided my staff on day to day camp activities. As the director, I was also expected to deal with discipline and dealing with larger camp issues, such as parental meetings, daily schedules, meetings with other directors, staff evaluations, among other behind the scenes operations.
