TARYN SCHMIDT
ABOUT ME
I am the type of person that can never have enough on my plate, both figuratively in my work and literally when eating Thai food. My involvement in different musical groups across the country while balancing full-time school work and part-time jobs has taught me how to manage multiple projects and commitments at once while holding myself to the highest standard in all that I do.
My friends call me "the voice of reason" among them because of my innate ability to think calmly and objectively in any situation I am put in. This, I believe, has always been my greatest strength.
​
I am a recent graduate of Florida State University looking forward to continuing my career in television.
My work experience yields mostly from a sports media background as a Producer and Editor for Seminole Productions, Florida State University's athletic production department. This position has given me incredible opportunities to create features, produce a weekly show, and work closely with our social media department to discuss and make media content that enhances our brand and generates excitement around upcoming events. I have also logged over 300 hours producing and working live sporting events, concerts, and award shows at Florida State. Currently, I work as a Freelance Sports Producer with WFTV Channel 9 in Orlando, FL.
