While at Sprout, an NBC subsidiary specializing in children’s programming, I worked mostly under the Senior Production Coordinator. I created best- of compilations, assisted in compressing and ingesting sizable deliveries of raw footage and even helped to create corporate accounts at prop and costume vendors all around Manhattan.
Working at Showtime was a fantastic experience. As a part of the internship program, I conducted extensive research and had the opportunity to present a final project on elevating/revamping the Showtime brand to the CEO, CFO, and SVP of Strategy. The main focus of my internship involved assisting in prep work for Showtime's submissions for guild-related awards, including SAG, DGA, PGA, and WGA, as well as assisting in prep work for the Emmy Awards. In this internship, I really learned the ins and outs of a network, from award shows to season budget proposals.
Television is and has always been a crucial part of my life- These shows are some of my TV favorites
During my Sophomore Year, I interned at ABC News. While working as a member of the news team, I examined and evaluated time-sensitive footage during aftermath of Boston Marathon Bombings and the MIT Shooting of April, 2013. Along with logging and editing footage, I pitched stories, attended shoots and assisted in producing segments. This internship helped give me a glimpse into the fast paced world of news television.
During my summer at Warner Brothers Records, I oversaw the development and coordination of a focus group on marketing tactics for Delta Rae, and presented final report to the President of Sire Records. I also assisted in
the development of marketing plans for wide array of artists including Michael Bublé, Eric Hutchinson, Muse, Green Day, Kimbra, and Waka Flocka Flame. My internship allowed me to explore the connection between artists and how the are represented, and how to help mold their images, via partnerships with major companies.

After transferring to Columbia my sophomore year, I decided to keep busy by joining various clubs and even rushing a fraternity. I was heavily involved in the Columbia University Performing Arts League, serving as a member of the production team on three different performances, as well as working as an Intern at Columbia's Hillel.
