Having used proven marketing methods to increase brand awareness and increase brand visibility in the marketplace, I feel I am a qualified candidate for a company seeking a marketing specialist. 

I have also leveraged contacts in the media by providing them with great story opportunities for them which resulted in coverage from both national and local media of specific stories. ESPN, ABC, NBC, the Orange County Register, The Los Angeles Times are among the news outlets that I have worked with.
