Hello! I'm Diamond Holton. I greatly enjoy building strategic relationships with key individuals, such as players, coaches, and team staff, to develop captivating stories that keep fans returning to participate in online forums, reading feature stories, and consuming regular blogs. As an innovative, goal-oriented specialist in communications, social media, and sports journalism, I excel in broadening brand awareness and development through fan-engaging sports features, live play-by-play commentary, and social media platform expansion.
Some of my key accomplishments are linked to my expertise in social media communications and include expanding the Washington Mystics' Twitter presence to 300 followers, increasing web traffic during the WNBA season, and establishing a regularly published blog for both the Washington Mystics and the Washington Wizards.
My experience to date has focused in sports media, government service and public radio; however, my demonstrated expertise in mass media, interpersonal, and social media communications has broad application across industries and other sports-based arenas. I am a team-oriented professional with a keen work ethic and eye for developing thought-provoking content. When the audience enjoys and responds to my social media post, live game coverage, or feature blog and engages, I know my hard work has been worth the extra effort. With that in mind, I look forward to connecting with other industry professionals.
