Why should you hire me?

“Marin is mature beyond her years and was a joy to be around during her internship at Trailblazer Studios. She was always eager to learn and reached out often beyond our Development department which she was assigned to. I particularly remember being impressed with her insight and intuition as she sat in with me while I was judging a section for the News and Documentary Emmy Awards. Her comments were very thoughtful and she helped dispel many myths for me including the line of thought that young people don't have the attention span for documentaries and the often disparaging comments about "millennials". Marin will no doubt elevate the environment of any workplace and will quickly become an extremely valuable team member.”

— Eric Johnson, SVP of Sound + Engagement at Trailblazer Studios

“Marin is an energetic, passionate, creative writer, photographer and producer who across various media platforms works hard to carry out the vision of the organization she serves. She has a particular interest in using music combined with visual elements to create stories that resonate on an emotional level. Her dedication to doing quality work on cutting-edge and innovative platforms would be an asset for any company looking to add her to their team.”

— Stephen Stock, Senior Investigative Reporter at NBC Bay Area KNTV

“Marin's positive attitude and dedication to her work inspires the same of those around her. She brings an eagerness to learn and a drive to master whatever skills are necessary to deliver the best product possible. If you put Marin in a position that requires resilience and creative problem solving, she will produce for your team.”

— Elliot Blumberg, Creative Director at StoryDriven

“Marin is a joy to work with and incredibly creative. She is innovative and loves to try new things. She works hard, has a can-do attitude and welcomes feedback. I’ve worked with Marin on two separate occasions and could not have been more satisfied with her professionalism and grit. Her positivity is infectious. Her resolve is strong. She would elevate any team she joins.”

— Chelsey Griffith, Emmy Award-winning storyteller and videographer

“Marin was an absolute pleasure to work with and produced high quality work at all times. Throughout her internship at Trailblazer Studios, she regularly went above and beyond expectations and requirements. She is attentive and focused and is eager to help out in any way she can — a true team player. Marin has incredible creative vision, an eye for beautiful aesthetics and creates stunning work. I know Marin will have success wherever she ends up.”

— Sydney Fedora, Development Producer at Trailblazer Studios

“I had the pleasure of supervising Marin throughout the summer of 2019 as she led a project investigating podcasting and how it can be utilized as a content and revenue source for our broadcast company. Marin's ability to take a very broad topic and narrow it down to informative, key points is what stuck with me the most. She compiled a thorough presentation, and due to her excellent statistical analysis and thoughtful applications of that data, I still reference that presentation frequently. In addition to her strong work ethic and resourcefulness, Marin is also a team player and very easy to work with. She approaches each task with a positive attitude and is constantly looking for ways to improve. All these traits lead me to believe Marin will find success in any endeavor she chooses to pursue.”

— Jason Kong, General Manager at Curtis Sports Media

“Marin came to work everyday with a refreshingly positive attitude and willingness to learn as much as she could during the summer of 2018 as an intern at Trailblazer Studios. Marin is one of the rare creatives who’s authenticity and talent will take her far in her career. Her resilience and optimism reflected in her strong work ethic, which inspired both myself and my colleagues. I would, without a doubt, recommend Marin for any position she is seeking. She will not only work hard but do so with a great attitude and fierce determination.”

— McKenna Czap, Multimedia Producer, Corporate Video Lead

“Marin’s creativity, enthusiasm, and work ethic are among her strongest qualities. She has positive energy and leaned in hard to understand the project at hand while working even harder to accomplish goals. One of the things that stood out during Marin’s time as an intern was her ability to run with a concept while still checking in to make sure she was on target. It was a joy to have her on a special project team and remarkable that of all the interns I supervised, Marin is the one who continues to stay in touch.”
