ABOUT ME

Jade Melody♥ - I am one of the most forward-thinking, technically savvy, and diverse people in the business! Beginning my career in Real Estate Development, I quickly became adept at handling difficult logistics and complicated workflows. These skill sets have allowed me to become a specialist at handling multiple tasks simultaneously, especially those required by logistically-riddled TV & Webcast Productions, Real Estate/Construction Timelines, and Advertising Schedules.

I also understand that my role requires more than just managing timelines and reporting milestones – it requires the ability to think creatively - all while delivering safely and accurately.

Computer Skills include: Photoshop, Webdesign, Video Editing, Database Management and Creation, Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, FACEBOOK and Linkedin
