Content Work

I tend to gravitate to visual forms of communication due to the amount of information that can be conveyed visually. I’ve listed a number of video projects below that I’ve worked on. I enjoy building technical bridges and explaining technical concepts in visual forms. I’ve also worked in technical writing and content review for marketing teams. The last section is some history of work sponsoring developer influencers in YouTube to grow Retool.

Influencer Content

I built a team of YouTube “influencers” creating developer content and brainstormed ways to work with them to create more relevant tutorials and distribute it to their pre-existing subscribers.

This led to working with Free Code Camp on some big videos that reached ~1M+ viewers and a number of other small to mid size channels where we were able to reach 10-200k developers at a time. I’ve shared some examples of these videos at the link below:

Many of these top ranking YouTube videos will show up embedded on the main Google search page, further increasing reach.
