At Lincoln University I played an intricate part in the creation of the media department and implemented significant aesthetic changes to various marketing initiatives. In short, I was indispensable in launching the university website, developing online social media tools including the university’s first blog, launching two publications, and creating promotional videos for the admissions department.
