Military Waypoint was created as a place for service members to share their travel ideas and photos within the military travel tribe, but also snap up special military discounts, deals and money-saving tips.

Strategic Placement & Promotions

Sales Development

Sightline Media Group, formerly Gannett Government Media

Military Times changed ownership in 2015 and 2016. This transition meant that Military Times needed rebranding. I spearheaded major branding campaigns to modernize the corporate image (e.g. core pitch and media kit). In addition, I developed and redesigned sales documents, proposal templates and key category presentations.

Wilderness 50

National Park Service

The 50th Anniversary National Wilderness Planning Team (Wilderness50) is a growing coalition of federal agencies, non-profit organizations, academic institutions, and other wilderness user groups. Their purpose is to plan and implement local, regional, and national events and projects that are specifically designed to elevate the profile of wilderness during the 50th anniversary celebration.

I produced, directed and supervised the editing of a three-part PSA series for the Nation-al Wilderness Conference. During filming, I interviewed Wildlife Film Producer, Chris Palmer; Media Specialist, Chuck Dunkerly; NPS Ranger, James Abbe; and elementary school chil-dren. The series was published on the National Park Service website and YouTube channel. It increased viewership and social following by > 30%. In addition, the series was nominated for the Best Digital Campaign by American University School of Communications.

Tribune Broadcasting (DCW-TV)

During my time at CW/DC50-TV, I developed promotional strategies for all shows and collaborated with sales to gain client sponsorship. I established a strong online presence and developed best practices for the social media sites. In the first year, I increased social media presence by 50%.

iPad in Classrooms

Wunderman DC

I monitored social media presence and increased external awareness of the agency by contributing posts to the company’s blog; “Terffpunkt.”

IPads in Classrooms was an article that I researched and wrote that was published on the company’s blog. The article analyzed the integration of iP-ads into the classroom and the growing concern among parents that iPads might lead to violence and a decrease in communication and social skills. I conducted an in-depth interview with an Intellectual Disabilities Teacher in Prince William County on emerging technology in classrooms and how chil-dren were growing up in a technology savvy world.

Rebecca is motivated to take on any project that comes her way. When doing work for Wilderness50, she took on the PSA portion of our campaign to make sure it was completed on time and within the guidelines set forth by our client. She worked with two other team members to coordinate the shoot schedule and edit time frame for the project. Great work by Rebecca and her team.

Rebecca is a doer. She is a dedicated professional with both a big-picture scope as well as an eye for details. She is a trustworthy and an exceptional coordinator. She has a vibrant personality and infectious smile, perfect for working in business and event settings. We couldn’t have asked for a better fashion show!
