Managing schedules, recruiting and booking guests, producing field segments, researching and pitching stories, shooting, editing promos, writing weekly reports and coordinating with the home office in DC
Summary
The best damn award-winning former journalist/ photographer/ video editor turned coordinating producer you'll ever meet. Fearless in danger zones, detail-oriented, quick on my feet and the right woman for the task (plus, I'm delightful to work with!)
