In the summer of 2016, I was recruited to assist the NBC Olympics team with coverage of #Rio2016 across all platforms. With a passion for both sports and entertainment, the Olympics truly is my sweet spot and I jumped at the opportunity to join their team. Together we earned 1 billion engagements across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram which was an 861x increase from the London 2012 games.
With a focus on growing the next generation of Olympic fans, we added 1.9 million fans across Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram from 8/3/16 – 8/21/16. Later that year, our hard work was rewarded when our team took home an Emmy for Outstanding Trans-Media Sports Coverage. To date, this is one of my proudest accomplishments and I’m so grateful to the NBC Sports team.
