Social & Video Content: Frontstretch
Media Assistant at Frontstretch (2020–2025), a national sports media outlet. I designed video thumbnails and social graphics, managed publishing across YouTube, Instagram, X and Facebook, and built the schedule and training for a 3–4 person contributor team. The YouTube channel grew from under 200 to 32,000+ subscribers during that time.
Creating New Branding for Frontstretch Grassroots
Frontstretch Grassroots focuses on the local, short-track racing that takes place across America, featuring series such as the CARS Tour and ARCA. The goal was to create branding that stood out from the main branding but was not something completely different.
Providing Systems to Produce Workflow and Success
The race-weekend workflow I ran at Frontstretch, built around same-day turnaround:
- Schedule: I built and owned the editor schedule, assigning race-weekend coverage and workload across multiple people.
- Coordinate: I ran the process from the track to the finished video. On-site reporters uploaded footage, and the editing team added sponsor overlays, the company logo and an end screen.
- Edit: Some weekends I edited the videos myself, and other weekends the editing team did.
- Package & publish: I designed thumbnails in Photoshop, wrote titles and descriptions for click-through and search, published to YouTube, and handed off to a separate social team for Facebook, X and Instagram.
- Review: After each race weekend I checked YouTube Studio for top performers, retention and click-through rates.
- Train: I developed training materials and onboarding for new video editors and set consistent standards for how content was produced and published.
Campaign & Digital Ad Graphics
Web ads, event promos, social graphics and print mailers created while working at JCD Consulting, a consulting firm that needed graphics support. Quick turnarounds, with consistent branding across print and digital.
Branding, Logos & Apparel
A logo for a client (Trackchaser), plus projects from college: Sting 'Em! branding, a shirt design for my dorm (Palmer Hall), and a personal coaster design based on the !!! song “Even When the Water's Cold.”
