During my time at Jack Morton Worldwide, I was the Creative Services Project Manager for a variety of interior and broadcast set design projects.
Working alongside my brilliant manager Darin Holt, we were a mighty two-person team that led and supervised all creative resourcing needs for JMW’s Emmy award-winning Broadcast Set Design department led by EVP Jim Fenhagen, Andre Durette, Larry Hartman, and Lead Project Manager Evan Hill.
We worked tirelessly to manage a high volume of daily creative resourcing requests for active projects and new business proposals, roughly juggling 20 to 50 set design projects at a time.
Below are some highlighted projects during my time with the agency’s broadcast design department, working for clients such as NFL, Manoto TV, ABC, CBS, ESPN, NBC, and CNN, among many other entertainment, sports, and media brands.
