My passion rests in achieving a position that is both challenging and elastic while allowing for meaningful contributions to The Engine Is Reds success. I bear the needed skills, drive, and laser focus to excel as your jr. copywriter intern and grow with your company.

Experience
Marketing Research and Sales Xenonics Holdings, Inc. May 10 August 10 Carlsbad, California
Working Independently, with minimal oversight, I compiled an industry evaluation and a product market analysis to assess competitors and potential buyers for introducing an existing product into a new market segment. With my findings, I pinpointed the most promising growth opportunities and proceeded to establish initial relationships with the corresponding consumers/organizations. During a short interval, I was able to identify and begin the preliminary sales efforts for a market presently being pursued.

I successfully led a small team of engineers and top assembly technicians to troubleshoot manufacturing problems and quality control issues. Upon our discoveries, I wrote and compiled additional media from a range of sources to produce two manufacturing procedure manuals in their entirety, without following a pre-existing model. Currently, both are used in-house and by third party companies for the assembly of government night vision and inferred illumination devices.
