Summary

Hi, I’m Adriana Rivera. I’m currently a student at the University of North Texas, majoring in Converged Broadcast Media with a minor in Journalism. I’m passionate about both photography and media, which is why I run my own photography business on the side. It’s an amazing way for me to capture and share unique moments through my lens. I also have hands-on experience in the media field as the Lead Camera Operator for the Cleburne Railroaders, a Minor League Baseball team. I’ve been with them for three years going on four, and I’m looking forward to returning next summer. This past softball season, I expanded my skills by working at Cleburne High School, where I did PA announcing and took professional photos for the softball team. With this next upcoming season im doing more than what i have ever done before including their hype video and videography for them. In addition to my media experience, I’ve worked in retail at Boot Barn and Hibbett Sports, and walmart. These roles helped me develop strong multitasking abilities and a knack for customer service, which was recognized through positive customer feedback and an Employee of the Homestand award at the Railroaders. I graduated from Cleburne High School in 2023 and spent two semesters at Hill College before transferring to UNT. I’m always eager to learn and grow, and I’m actively looking for internships and opportunities to further develop my skills in broadcast and photography. I’m a team player who enjoys helping others and sharing what I’ve learned. Whether it’s through giving feedback or supporting my peers, I’m committed to both personal and professional growth.
