At Pattison Media, I supervised and coached reporters, anchors and writers across four Saskatchewan newsrooms. I also participated in hiring, employee reviews and weekend coverage scheduling.

I led daily editorial meetings, assigned developing stories and shared final editing responsibility for five regional news portals publishing local content every day.

As a Traffic Correspondent at Canadian Traffic Network, I produced prerecorded weekend traffic reports for Global TV, turning changing road conditions into concise broadcast updates. I also filled in for expanded afternoon coverage for local TV and radio stations.

I'm currently supporting field operations at Champion Concrete Cutting in a safety-sensitive environment, coordinating with crews to complete assigned work. I'm seeking an entry-level insurance role where I can develop expertise in client service, brokerage or claims support.
