Experience

  1. Social Media Specialist

    Virginia Lottery

    Jan 2019 — Present · Richmond, VA, US

    Being a Social Media Specialist means living in a constant loop of refresh-refresh-refresh. A post is doing well? Refresh! Staying on top of customer service issues through Facebook messages? Refresh! Reviewing metrics on how our paid strategy is performing? Refresh! Treating myself to an iced coffee to get the creativity juices flowing? Refresh-ING! This role turns my chronically online addiction into a strength.(Although I often wish our Lottery followers were as up to date on trending memes as I am. lol) Sometimes negative comments roll in, but transforming a bad player experience into a brand loyalty-earning win? That’s the real jackpot.
