​

For 3yrs, I supported both personal and professional tasks, one of the toughest Producer/Heads of Production in NY and 3 Senior Producers.  She demanded nothing less than perfection and taught me well. I was involved in every aspect of the creative development process including the early concept research stage, costing out ideas and location research. Then I post production coordinated the finishing of ALL spots for each producer simultaneously.  Scheduled every edit session, made sure all attendees and every element needed for each session was prepared and waiting for producers, negotiated rates and handled/approved all post and talent invoicing, worked with our internal studio pushing thru approval process and making sure comps on print campaigns were to per client specs, etc.
