Develop social media strategies and content that engage high school and college students and increase awareness of Naval STEM opportunities.
Create and manage social media content calendars in coordination with program stakeholders.

Gather feedback, participation information, photographs, success stories, and other content from outreach events for future communications.
Travel to approximately 10–20 events annually, including occasional overnight, multi-day, evening, or weekend events.
Prepare summaries of campaign activities, audience engagement, event results, lessons learned, and recommended improvements.
Manage multiple campaigns, assignments, deadlines, and stakeholder reviews simultaneously.
