Summary

Dependable and hardworking professional experienced in working in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment. Committed to achieving tasks efficiently and accurately through dedication and long hours.

I have expertise in CMS work, transcription, live updates, video streaming, social media management (Twitter, Facebook, Instagram), as well as proficiency in Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Google Drive and other doc systems.

Skilled in review writing and committed to delivering high-quality content. Experienced in YouTube monetization and improving engagement. Successfully grew small channels exponentially. I also have video editing experience, primarily with Vegas.

Mostly familiar with the video game and pro wrestling worlds, but I am more than happy to cover technology, movies, and entertainment.
