Worked as a Public Affairs Airman specializing in Public Relations and Broadcast Video News. During my time in Germany I produced 62 video products and published 15 radio news stories delivering command information and telling the 86st Airlift Wing's story to an audience of 65,500 personnel. My efforts directly contributed to the unit earning United States Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa's second place website in 2012. Additionally, I captured paratrooper airdrop footage which showcased in the Air Force's joint capabilities with allied nations, earning the command's 2012 video documentary award. Furthermore, I created Combined Federal Campaign benchmark training video modules which proved instrumental in disseminating information to 280,000 people and the donation of 13.6 million dollars. My "Creek Defender 2013" multimedia production highlighted 104 security forces Airmen during deployment preparation, aiding implementation of similar training at additional units. Finally, I was awarded the command's 2013 Outstanding New Broadcaster award when ranked against peers throughout Air Forces Europe and Africa.
