Social Media Management and Consulting, Shiva Mandir Center for Vedic Studies, May 2012 – May 2013
This was a volunteer position. I created the organization's blog, managed it, edited content, wrote some pieces, offered ideas for content and connected to appropriate audiences through social media such as Facebook pages and groups, Twitter and email. The blog resulted in an increase of registered class participants which began with 5 regulars and at the end of my time there increased to approximately 25+ participants. The work also resulted in creating much buzz for the Mandir with 60 or more online participants taking part in Shiva Mandir activities.
