We are excited to welcome the newest member to Lawrence’s Communications team, Danny Damiani, who joins us this week as our new multimedia specialist.
Danny comes to us from The Post-Crescent, Appleton’s daily newspaper, where he has served as a staff photographer since May 2015. In his role, Danny created award-winning videos and photos, covering the Appleton and Fox Cities communities with honesty and compassion (his portfolio is worth a look). And for the Packers fans in the LU community, Danny served as a mobile camera operator on “Clubhouse Live,” the weekly Packers livestream from Downton Appleton. He holds a bachelor of arts in journalism, concentration in photojournalism, from Eastern Illinois University.
As multimedia specialist, Danny will work closely with Garrett Katerzynske, director of video production, and Mackenzie Huber, social media and web content specialist, to produce engaging video, photography, and other digital assets that will enhance the University’s social media and web presence. Danny’s creativity, journalism background, familiarity with Appleton and the Fox Cities, and excitement for visual storytelling make him an ideal match for this new position.
In his role, Danny will be a visible presence on campus, covering campus events, capturing campus life, and profiling members of the Lawrence community. Please be sure to say hello when you see him around campus.
