Hi, I'm Tony

I’m a recent graduate from San Jose State University, holding a B.S. in Business Administration with a focus on Marketing. My academic background has equipped me with a solid understanding of the field. During my studies, I gained hands-on experience through an internship on a mayoral campaign, followed by a role with the Mayor's Office after the successful election. These experiences allowed me to assist with social media initiatives, email marketing, and community engagement, reinforcing my passion for the field. I’m now seeking opportunities to launch my career in marketing, where I can contribute to creative projects and continue to grow professionally.

Course Projects


Stukent Social Media Simulator

In this project, I served as the Social Media Manager for Buhi Supply Co., an e-commerce and retail bag supplier, through the Mimic Social simulation. Over 12 weeks, I crafted and managed 7 to 12 social media posts per week across multiple platforms, strategically allocating a $5,000 weekly advertising budget. My responsibilities included analyzing content performance, optimizing posting strategies, and selecting the most effective channels to boost brand visibility. The project culminated in a comprehensive social media plan and a set of actionable recommendations to enhance Buhi's online presence and drive website traffic.


Product Segment Research

In this project, my team and I conducted an in-depth analysis of the transportation and safety service segment around San Jose State University, focusing on the university's existing escort services. Through our research, including surveys and interviews, we identified key gaps in service usage and student awareness, uncovering significant safety concerns in downtown nightlife and a strong demand for improved safety services among students.To address these issues, we developed and proposed an alternative service, "Safety Buddy," designed to fill the gaps. The marketing plan emphasized convenience, quick service, and accessibility through a dedicated app. The project highlighted the potential for increased safety to boost local economic activity and proposed strategic partnerships and marketing initiatives to engage the target audience.


CommUniverCity College Day Marketing Plan

This project focused on revitalizing CommUniverCity's College Day event to better engage underserved students and promote higher education. We enhanced their digital presence and marketing strategy to increase visibility and effectiveness. Additionally, we developed new resources and promotional materials to reach a broader audience. The project culminated in a strategic plan to boost awareness and support for College Day.
