In its inception, the Arkansas Cornbread Festival had a vision of two things: cornbread & community. Now it is a tradition of the Little Rock holiday events. They have come a long way from the beginning, and I am proud that I was apart of the team that brought this festival to life in downtown Little Rock.
I began work for the Bernice Garden as a freelance web content manager and social media marketer in 2011. I was requested as apart of my employment at the Bernice Garden to create the first annual 2011 Arkansas Cornbread Festival website. We started off with a Wordpress blog website & Facebook. I provided photographic services, graphic design, assisted with event coordination and planning, document creation, search engine optimization, and social media marketing.
