Hi, I’m Jenna. So nice to meet you!
A little about myself and my background below -
Creative Marketing Manager - Photo / Creative Producer - Creative Director - Project Manager
Born and raised in Hawaii, then on to sunny Southern California. I have been lucky enough to be working in the creative field for 10 years. My professional background has covered every aspect of photo production, as well as video creative. I began as a photo coordinator and producer after graduating from Pepperdine University, then worked my way into asset management, photo editing/copyright, photo retouching, art directing, then on to manage a team of photographers and photo editors at BuzzFeed. You name it, I’ve got you covered!
I have worn many hats in my career and each one has taught me something different. In my most recent role, I was the Senior Manager of Photography for Red Bull Media House, overseeing photo production & workflow, photo quality and overall creative strategy. I successfully led numerous photo clinics, finding new and diverse talent to add to our photography roster.
Just before Red Bull, I was lucky enough to have worked in the Creative Marketing department at Quibi, lead by Jeffery Katzenberg and Meg Whitman. I oversaw the creative assets for title marketing campaigns which included product art, key art, trailers and broadcast spots, as well as the overall strategy for our 360 campaigns. Being that it was a startup, I learned how to think on my feet and pivot at the drop of a dime.
Prior to that, I was at Netflix where I not only managed assets for publicity, but I oversaw and hired unit photographers, photographers for events, as well as premiers and red carpets. I produced gallery, marketing and editorial photo shoots from ideation to completion for publicity and marketing campaigns, as well as working with creative agencies to create featurettes, bringing stories to life for the titles I worked on.
I have extensive experience in both marketing and publicity, so I am happy to roll up my sleeves and dive right in. I am currently available for full time work, or freelance projects, so let’s chat!
