Although my freelance projects supporting MESA's marketing initiatives were not formal positions, they provided me with valuable exposure to the manufacturing sector and an understanding of smart manufacturing concepts. In this capacity, I collaborated closely with MESA’s marketing team—particularly their marketing chair—to create impactful content and marketing materials for industry-specific events and publications.

My work included designing promotional graphics and videos for MESA webinars and events, where I developed engaging visuals to boost visibility and drive registration among a technical audience. I also played a key role in blog development and copywriting, transforming complex, technical content from thought leaders into clear, accessible blog posts for broader campaigns. This involved reformatting submissions to ensure they were digestible while preserving their technical integrity, and tailoring content for cross-functional promotions with industry magazines.

These experiences not only deepened my familiarity with the manufacturing industry's key topics and trends but also refined my ability to communicate complex ideas effectively across different platforms. This background will enable me to contribute meaningfully to the Marketing Communications Specialist role at ATS, bringing both industry exposure and content creation expertise to your team.
