About
Hello! My name is Audri Smith and I am a passionate digital communicator specializing in social media management, email communications, content development, and website content management. With a degree in Film/Video Production from Washburn University, I have a strong foundation in cinematography, lighting, and video editing. However, my skills and interests have expanded beyond film and I have now become well-versed in print production, digital marketing, and website redesign. What sets me apart from others in my field is my drive to constantly improve and stay ahead of the ever-evolving digital landscape. I am always seeking out new techniques and strategies to enhance my skills and provide the best possible results for my clients. I thrive in a competitive environment and I am constantly pushing myself to be the best in my field. Outside of work, you can find me indulging in my love for reading, binge-watching FRIENDS, and spending quality time outdoors with my family. I am a firm believer in work-life balance and strive to maintain a healthy lifestyle both personally and professionally. Connect with me at audriana.smith01@gmail.com.
