If you're looking for someone with a diverse background in IT, web development, social media, online marketing and public relations — someone who's as passionate about the latest gadget as he is about a good book — then you're in luck. I am a quick learner and excellent communicator. I'm currently pursuing a BS in journalism with a major in public relations at the University of Oregon.

Public Relations
Civil War LAN Pitchengine
This is a press release I wrote for the Civil War LAN event between the University of Oregon and Oregon State University. The release was later picked up by the University of Oregon's Public and Media Relations department. After slightly reworking my original release it was sent out to local media outlets. This resulted in coverage by the Register Guard and KVAL.
Civil War LAN TV Coverage
KVAL, a local TV affiliate, sent a videographer to cover the Civil War LAN event that I helped promote.
Civil War LAN Kotaku Coverage
I submitted my original Civil War LAN release to several media outlets, including Kotaku. Incredibly, they jumped on it and gave us some decent coverage. The Kotaku article nabbed more than 2,500 views and 34 comments. It also resulted in 400 additional referrals to the Civil War LAN website in just 24-hours.
