Career Summary

I offer a diverse and accomplished background that includes award-winning management-level experience in sales, marketing, graphic design, website administration, real estate, retail, and property management. In addition to my substantial experience as the Digital Solutions Director for KFYR-TV, I provide a variety of all-original content and services through my company Hoffman Creations, where I operate a network of websites and have self-published three books.

Among my greatest strengths are strategic planning and crafting innovative solutions that drive results, which has translated into a strong record of accomplishment, from my very first job to my current position.

Since 2009, I have had the great pleasure to supervise digital operations and revenue for each of the broadcast news groups covering western North Dakota: KXMB-TV and KFYR-TV. In these leadership roles, I established each as the indisputable digital and social media market leader in traffic, social media, and revenue.

I previously achieved strong success as a Property Manager for GOLDMARK and a Store Manager for CVS/pharmacy. As well, I have expanded my wealth of expertise through Hoffman Creations, which I founded in 1998.
