about
My name is Brook Ellingwood
I like to be where society, technology, business, and creativity all intersect. That's where I solve real-world problems in media strategy and architecture.
I'm experienced
Since November 2009, I've been working for KCTS Television, Seattle's Public Broadcasting Service affiliate, as an Interactive Producer/Experience Architect. I'm looking to help define a digital strategy for public media to succeed and grow in its mission to serve the community.
As a professional working towards a Master of Communication in Digital Media degree from University of Washington, I'm focusing on emerging media practices, from crowdsourcing to social networks.
I've been an online writer and producer for Disney/Starwave. I've designed data schemas for text mining. I rebuilt REI.com, architecting a publishing model to retrofit on an existing software model. I've managed teams and have led effective training and staff development. As a contractor and consultant I've worked with leading interactive agencies, including ZAAZ and POP.
I'm all about media
Media communications has fascinated me as long as I can remember. Human history is a cycle of media revolutions that have shaped the way we think, act, and live. We are our media.
