qbfc social media manager

Let me just start with this; This was my dream job.

I had the privilege of managing all social media for a new USL soccer club in Queens. I started my journey there as a media intern, then social media coordinator, and eventually became social media manager, all within 9 months. I took the Instagram from 15,8k to 25,7k followers and doubled engagement from 433k to 1,15M. At that same time I launched the TikTok account that went from 0 to 80k followers in 2022 and received 4.1M likes, each video averaging around 100k views.

I didn’t know anyone in the sports industry coming here as an international student-athlete from Norway in 2018. But by being a hard-working student and impressing my professor, I was able to land an interview with Queensboro. This is one of my proudest accomplishments in life and I am extremely thankful for this experience.

As the social media manager, I also was in charge of hiring and training interns every semester to create our graphics, as well as writing articles for the website and creating content for the app.
