Press Release
Capital Cellars is a bourbon, wine, and beer retailer. We host lots of celebrities in the spirits industry. In this press release I write about Bill Samuels, Jr visiting the store to be on hand for our select bottle of Makers Mark 46 Capital Cellars Select. It was picked up by local news sites and industry blogs.
Earned Media
Loving The Job: Q&A With Chick-fil-A’s Reagan West
Leveraging my relationships with the local newspaper, The State Journal, I pitched a story to interview and feature one of Chick-fil-A’s rising star team members, Reagan West. My goal was to give some earned media to our store and continue promotion in a positive manner.
The State Journal enjoys a readership of approximately 12,000 people. According to the paper, the Facebook post reached over 3,000 people and earned 84 reactions and shares.

Videography
Chick-fil-A Cow and Black Cat Get Something to Eat
Chick-fil-A was a title sponsor of the Frankfort YMCA’s Black Cat Chase 5k Race / Fun Run. Ahead of the event, I worked with videographer and editor Molly Myhand. I conceptualized the video, selected the shot locations, and helped film sections of the video with my DJI Osmo Gimbal.
In this video I produce a live video promoting the Lexington Singers performance of John Rutter’s Gloria.
