Discover Top Reporters / Journalist in Tampa, Florida, USA

Hi, I'm Shannon Wolfgang, mom of two and a native of Orlando. I have seen our beautiful city grow in many ways and have been able to experience various trends and cultures while capturing moments. I share our adventures of art, travel, food, and fun in the images I take while promoting the Central Florida area and beyond. It is fun experiencing some old yet new adventures within my children's eyes. After graduating from the University of Florida with a degree in Magazine Journalism, I realized I had a passion for storytelling, and I love to talk. I landed back in O-town and started a 10+ year career in print and digital media designing for various national magazine publications. During those years, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work overseas on a fashion magazine in a foreign language. After working a decade at the magazine company in Winter Park, I went out on my own as a freelancer, which included contract work for national brands and various agencies around Orlando. One client turned full time for 3.5 years, but I went out on my own once again. This time was different, and we turned everything we knew into a business. I always wanted to help people, and this was a way I could artistically.

I’m a Venezuelan citizen with permanent residence in the United States. I have a degree in Communication Studies and my work experience has been between editing and producing Spanish content for different media platforms and editorial coordination. I have worked for television channels, cultural institutions, non-profit citizen organizations and digital media. With coverage of different topics like technology, health, immigration, environment, culture, communities, competitiveness and show biz. Always linked with Spanish content editing.

I am currently writing and editing Spanish content for local audiences. I'm not fully bilingual, but I'm getting ready to be. I'm proficient in Spanish, intermediate in English and advance in Portuguese. Each work experience has been unique. In editorial experiences, I was on the coordination team of the “Atlas Práctico de Venezuela”, a collectible issues published by the newspaper “El Nacional”, which was recognized by the “Monseñor Pellín” prize as "Editorial Effort of the Year". For 4 years I worked as a consultant and researcher of successful institutions. Likewise, I participated in the production of 42 scripts and in the field production of 39 documentary videos, with which I learned that the success in the television’s narrative is in the approach that is given to the stories. Similarly, the work at E!
