Marketing Operations Coordinator
Reveal Technologies
Bozeman
07.2024 - Current
- At Reveal Technologies, I launched and managed the Goat Rodeo podcast, overseeing the entire production process—from equipment setup and remote recording to editing (Audacity, Premiere Pro), hosting (Podbean), and episode planning. I also founded and executed Reveal Rendezvous, a bi-monthly networking event series for Bozeman’s tech ecosystem, coordinating logistics for 50+ attendees including VCs, founders, and public figures like Ryan Zinke. I developed Battlelab, a tactical video series in collaboration with VetTV (pending release), and regularly produced branded LinkedIn content to expand Reveal’s digital presence. I led all logistics for national trade shows, including BD team registration, travel coordination, and on-site execution. Internally, I oversaw the complete setup of Reveal’s Bozeman office—from lease negotiation to layout and infrastructure—and contributed to the launch of a new assembly facility. I also organized company retreats, handling all aspects of travel, lodging, and activity planning. Additionally, I designed branded merchandise aligned with our marketing strategy and successfully managed high-stakes logistical challenges, including a last-minute crisis during a board event that was resolved within an hour.
