Early personal branding project.

1. PERSONAL BRAND EXPLORATION
Jonathan Andrews
Project & Portfolio I: Week 3
November 16, 2019

2. The oldest out of three siblings, Jonathan Andrews
spent his childhood in a small town outside of
Nashville, Tennessee. His teenage years were filled
with moving around to different states on the
eastern side of the US, until he finally found his
home in Atlanta, Georgia, at the age of 16. His
personality, leadership, friendliness and compassion
developed during his teenage years, where the
constant traveling and nomad-like lifestyle caused
him to adapt and be able to become more
personable and develop meaningful relationships
faster than most. He has been a sports fan his entire
life and dreams of becoming a sportscaster and/or
radio personality for companies like FS1 and ESPN.
After graduating high school in 2014, Jonathan
decided to pursue his love for sports by enrolling at
Full Sail University in the spring of 2019 and study
sportscasting.

14. Jonathan Andrews
You know how viewers has been a on a slight
decline over the last couple of years? Well what I
do is take my passion and love for all that is sports
and produce a story that connects to the viewers on an
emotional level. I take my personality and authenticity and blend them into a
heart-felt story that draws the audience in to see the game for more than just
the surface level. In fact, my time during college my professors and
classmates praised me for my ability to connect and relate to almost anyone
and broadcasting that through my works.
