"I have the highest respect for Jim Foley. It’s a big reason we hired him at NBC10 Boston and NECN. His passion and enthusiasm were evident, but on top of that he’s experienced and polished. Once we started working together, I started seeing what kind of man he is and I was impressed each day he came into the building. Jim brought in a positive attitude and came in with new, fresh ideas every single day. I also know what a great dad he is and I had the pleasure in joining him at a couple of his classes where he’s a professor at Emerson. He showed great leadership with his students and every word he said to them was truly important for their future in journalism. I am a big fan of Jim and know what an asset he is." - Raul Martinez, NBC10 Boston Sports Director
"Jim Foley is a hard-working, creative professional and a pleasure to work alongside with. Jim’s patience and professionalism stood out to me. Jim was willing to take time to help me edit, order graphics and complete other tasks while he was completing his work on a whole separate show. As someone who works under a deadline daily, I appreciated his help because I know every minute working on a broadcast is valuable. Jim’s patience and professionalism always stood out to me. I also found Jim to be creative and thorough in producing sports segments and programs. In producing sports segments, you need to have sharp editing and editorial skills and Jim is well equipped with both." - TJ Killilea, NBC10 Boston Producer SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS · 11 years of professional broadcast experience · Strong writing, producing and social media skills · Nationally and regionally awarded in media · Able to lead staff and coordinate responsibilities EXPERIENCE Communications · Produce sportscasts and report stories for affiliated stations · Teach 300-level college courses in sports media, journalism · Research, write and broadcast in several media formats · Edit and approve content for air and publishing · Work well with groups, including high-profile Technical · News producing with ENPS and Dalet · Video editing with Premiere, iMovie, Final Cut Pro and Avid · Audio editing with Audition and Pro Tools · Image editing with Lightroom and Photoshop · Publishing with Social Media, Sienna, Anvato and IB Publish · Camerawork with Nikon D3400 and Sony PXW-FS5 XDCAM EDUCATION Bachelor of Science in Broadcast Journalism Emerson College, Boston, MA, 2009 AWARDS and HONORS City of Kennewick: Community Leader Award RTDNF: Prato Sports Reporting National Scholar AP-RTNDA: Regional Award For Sports Program SUMMER OLYMPICS BLOG Flash Quote Fun with Foley |
