Completed a rigorous three-week course at the University of California Los Angeles where I attended classes and learned skills regarding how to write a teaser for a TV show pilot episode. During this time, I developed my own TV show idea and wrote a teaser with the skills acquired during the program. This teaser was then read/performed by actors in front of a large in-person audience in St. James Theater on the UCLA premise. It is here that I acquired the skills and knowledge necessary to become a TV show project consultant and producer for preproduction work with Lori Mirabal, my employer in this particular area. I learned how to improve time management, improve my collaboration abilities in a group setting, and how to share ideas effectively amongst peers whilst receiving constructive criticism.
