As we head into 2024, here’s where I announce some pretty big news more formally & slightly more permanently here on @instagram … (*cue the drumroll and dramatic melodic horns*): I took a big leap in mid-November by leaving my position as Director, Production at @meow_wolf. That said, I’m proud of the impact I had during my time working at such a magical, reality shifting place with such incredible artists. I met some incredible colleagues and friends at Meow Wolf that I will cherish forever. 🥹🥹🥹 Here’s a hot off the press profile from my new friends at @boldjourneymag where I share my thoughts on a myriad of topics, including: how I battle Imposter Syndrome, some of the qualities I believe are essential for being a great producer, a few of the recent projects I’m most proud of (hint my fave is the “Talkin Products” series for Omega Mart that you can watch now on YouTube), how much I believe in mentorship/cultivating sponsors and give a big thank you to @embracechangenyc + Cynthia Pong, JD, Cheyenne Morin (@_soy_chai), @awd_directors BDAI, & @wictny Prime Access Mentoring Programs. Check out the link to the Bold Journey (LINK IN BIO) I wish you all a joyful, fulfilling and prosperous New Year as we prepare to head into 2024. 🎉🙌🏾🚀 by @msglea

Howdy 👋🏾- It’s week nine (9) and (gasp 😮) the final week of my #fyc #hiregleananow overt brand awareness campaign to attract my next gig as a creative executive/producer of scripted episodic art! I’ve shared some of the lovely things people have said about my work as Director, Production at Meow Wolf (+ some of my projects as a freelance producer). 🎁 Now feels like a good time to wrap things up in this #fyc phase of my experimentation as we’re headed into the Oscars (essentially the end of Awards season) and it’s also a time where your performance reviews are likely wrapping up for those fortunate to have full-time employment. 🗣This week’s graphic talks a lot about my ability to quickly learn the ways and the culture of Meow Wolf (yes, I can hit the ground running in most environments/cultures) - it’s also an opportunity to share what I’ve learned over the course of my career how to create the culture I wanted to see/experience (at least within my teams I’ve had the pleasure of leading). At Meow Wolf I focused on building a marketing production team culture that was accountable, supportive, and transparent. I did my best to ensure we had moments where we allowed time for curiosity and moments where we didn’t always have to take ourselves so seriously. Back to my point - the best producers have great creative sensibilities (yes - that’s important), but they also set the tone/create great environments for people to do their best work! 💡 In plain English - I want to be the person producing and green lighting exceptional storytelling on your screens. I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects - especially in the model that we’ve seen out of the UK/Europe (TV/streaming). 👀To be clear if you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities, but my primary focus is on finding the longer term development/programming gigs at production companies, studios or networks! 🚀 ✨ 💰 by @msglea

Greetings and salutations 🤩 - It’s week eight (8) of my #hiregleananow #fyc campaign where I share the kind words people have said about working with me in hopes of finding my next full-time opportunity as a producer in the scripted episodic space. This week we focus in on how I quickly achieved results from my time as Director, Production at Meow Wolf. 👂🏾If you lean in —come on, don’t be shy, get closer I’ll share a secret with you… here it goes: I was able to quickly scale and then execute efficiently was by building trust by listening and willing to learn from what worked/didn’t work well. I built trust with my immediate team (📣shout-outs to Cheyenne Morin & Gus Ortega) and invited them as partners in building a process for marketing campaign production in all of our markets based on everything we heard from our internal clients who trusted us to help provide creative solutions for their marketing needs. We had the support of marketing leadership as well as many other departments that wanted to see us do well. 💡 I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects - especially in the model that we’ve seen out of the UK/Europe (TV/streaming). In plain English - I want to be the person producing and green lighting exceptional storytelling on your screens. 👀To be clear if you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities, but my primary focus is on finding the longer term development/programming gigs at production companies, studios or networks! 🚀 ✨ 💰   💜 A special THANK YOU to every person that has reached out/met with me, shared, commented or engaged my posts in some way already — I see you all and appreciate your encouragement so much (you’re truly the best). 👉🏾 Feel free to engage by liking, sharing and commenting - every, little bit helps! by @msglea

Hello (taps the 🎤, clears throat awkwardly) - if you’re new to this it’s week seven (7) of my #fyc brand awareness campaign to re-introduce you all of my delightful professional qualities. This week the focus is on one of the things I’ve been intentional about - remaining humble and building solid positive professional working relationships throughout the course of my career. No matter what anyone will tell you - relationships matter! It’s how I get ish done…by leading with humility, kindness and respect, which is essential for building relationships with creative collaborators. Not mentioned on this card is building trust, but that’s at the heart of my approach always. 💡 I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects - especially in the model that we’ve seen out of the UK/Europe (TV/streaming). In plain English - I want to be the person producing and green lighting exceptional storytelling on your small screens. Though the trades are reporting there are fewer shows going through pilot season when compared to a few years ago, there’s still an appetite for unique storytellers (just ask Reesa Teesa she has the internet in shambles this week with her #WhoTFDidIMarry cautionary tale). Things look bleak, but I remain optimistic that we’re just going through a big changing of the guard, things will pick back up once the dust settles. 👀To be clear if you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities, but my primary focus is on finding the longer term development/programming gigs at production companies, studios or networks! 🚀 ✨ 💰   💜 A special THANK YOU to every person that has reached out/met with me, shared, commented or engaged my posts in some way already — I see you all and appreciate your encouragement so much (you’re truly the best). 👉🏾 Feel free to like, share and comment - every, little bit helps! by @msglea

We’ve made it to week six (6) of my once a week #fyc #hiregleananow campaign where I share some of the kind things some of the folks I’ve had the pleasure of working with had to say about me. In week four (4) I teased working on a campaign for The Big Game (with the brilliant photographer, @katerussellphoto ). Well the work is out in the world now and it turns out it was Super Bowl adjacent - the brand posted some of what we worked on yesterday #ValentinesDay. 🗣 This week’s #fyc card reflects the ad agency Line Producer, Producer and Art Director said about working with us. (This picture is a clue to what brand it was if you were really paying attention to any of the follow-ups some of the advertisers have made). This was such a fun whirlwind of a project to work on - I learned a heck of a lot about Mack trucks on this project and I have lots of respect for semi-truck drivers out in the world as a result. The Art Director complimenting my sense of humor was a highlight because I think you can’t take yourself so seriously, because I always want the experience of working together to be more like a dream (I feel sorry for those who make working together a nightmare, but we’ve all dealt with that at one time or another amirite?) 💡 I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects (TV/streaming). John Landgraf (FX) at this year’s TCA says that the golden age of peak TV is over. However he also said he and his team are sweating bullets developing the right series for 2025! There’s space for the next wave of storytellers to lead the way - it’s time for new perspectives. (***Also John don’t hesitate to call me - I’m a huge fan of some of FX’s programming***) 👀 If you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities 🚀 ✨ 💰   💜 A special THANK YOU to every person that has reached out/met with me, shared, commented or engaged my posts in some way already — I see and appreciate you all so much. by @msglea

Hi 👋🏾— it’s week five (5) of my in-your-face #fyc campaign to attract my new role producing, green lighting and making scripted episodic (tv/streaming) art come to life. This week I focus on the nice things my colleagues at Meow Wolf had to say about my impact when I was Director, Production for the marketing team there. Leading projects from ideas to tangible, touchable real life is my sweet spot - it requires imagination, tenacity, focus and of course the special sauce I bring to any project. 💡 I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects - especially in the model that we’ve seen out of the UK/Europe (TV/streaming). As I told someone on a Zoom call earlier this week - all it takes is just one opportunity working out for me - just one - that’s why I’m optimistic! If you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities... 🚀 ✨ 💰   💜 A special THANK YOU to every person that has reached out/met with me, shared, commented or engaged my posts in some way already — I see and appreciate you all so much. 👉🏾 Feel free to like, share and comment - every, little bit helps!  🤷🏾‍♀️ PS - please imagine that first sentence on my graphic is a complete sentence…I tried my best not to edit or manipulate what I lifted from my 2023 Annual review text, but I recognize this is a sentence fragment & I liked what that part of the sentence had to say... by @msglea

Welcome to week four (4) of my overt brand awareness #fyc campaign to attract my new gig… if it’s your first time here, a few weeks ago I began making weekly posts that highlight some of the kind things some of my former colleagues had to say about me! Between this and some networking - earlier this week I was able to work on a really fun ~2-day top secret gig with one of my favorite collaborators, the amazingly talented Santa Fe photographer, Kate Russell (@katerussellphoto ). Thank you, Kate, for bringing me on - it was truly a pleasure. 😍Here’s what our ad agency friends had to say in an email from earlier today about working with us… “You all were a dream to work with!!  Thank you for everything!  We had such a good time…” which relates to today’s post— building camaraderie is but a portion of how I get cross-functional teams to work together seamlessly. 💡 I’m extremely interested in opportunities in shifting my focus to Creative/Development/Producing for scripted episodic projects (TV/streaming). After such a great experience this week for a project that came together rather quickly, I’m extremely optimistic about the possibilities ahead of us even with all of the bad news we’re seeing daily. Things are changing rapidly, but I believe it will lead to culture shifting stories + important works that will challenge us all to do and be better! If you’re looking for creative producers/ storytellers for full-time, contract or fractional work - don’t hesitate to get in touch with me! Yes, I’m still doing advertising and marketing work on a contract/fractional basis for the right opportunities (the gig earlier this week was too good to pass up, plus mama has bills to pay)🚀 ✨ 💰   💜 A special THANK YOU to every person that has reached out/met with me, shared, commented or engaged my posts in some way already — I see and appreciate you all so much. 👉🏾 Feel free to like, share and comment - every, little bit helps! by @msglea
