Hi! My name is Gabriella.
With a passion for exploring creative outlets through social media, photography, and videography, I hope to contribute my unique ideas to the everchanging digital marketing world.
ABOUT ME
The world of marketing…
is a way to inspire others and make your mark on the world. I realized the power that social media and content creation has when I was a kid. Watching gymnastics videos at the age of 10 inspired me to make my own versions and led to a passion for video editing and creative pursuits. I started with small apps like WeVideo, and Inshot.
In 2020, I began to explore the film and photography world, using professional tools. I became proficient in Canva, creating fliers and videos for family and friends, as well as CapCut. The ideas and possibilities are endless with today’s technology, and being able to generate an emotional response to and engagement with a creation I spent lots of time on became my love. Today, I work with many local organizations and groups to practice my passion and make my mark.
Education
My love for capturing joy in people through photos, videos, and content creation, I was inspired to study at the Macaulay Honors College at the College of Staten Island, majoring in Business Marketing and Management.
Career
I explored the content world in high school…
and became as involved as possible with social media as I could. Managing and leading a volunteering club came with unknown territory: the role to manage a social media account. Instagram: a creative medium I had no idea how to use. So I learned. With lots of prep, research, and plenty of practice, I took control of the Instagram. I created fliers, posts, videos, reels, and other content that supported my school, other organizations, and collaborations with local groups to better the community that I was involved in.
I transferred my knowledge and skills from this to foster connections through LinkedIn, my photography Instagram account, and photography and videography for Next Level Youth Sports. From doing so, I created many projects both in school and on the outside to contribute to my experience.
Today, I am currently the Social Media Intern for the Macaulay Honors College at CSI, I run the Instagram account for the CSI Finance and Economics Club, as well as my personal photography Instagram account.
Creative Projects
From school projects, to sports highlight videos, to my photography Instagram, check out my work!
Pursuing these endeavors has contributed to my knowledge about social media in the workplace, and has helped me connect with great people. I am very eager to learn more.
