a little bit about me
I’ve grown up in the Media Industry, so the dedication to craft and intense work ethic are second nature to me. My experience spans large and small scale narrative, network news, regional sports, new product promotion, educational and training videos, kickstarters, music videos and so much more I have been fortunate to work on the award winning productions of House of Cards and HBO’s VICE. I frequently work as Engineer/Utility for NBC News and NBC Sports Washington supporting their on-air operations, and as a Camera Operator on live pre and post game shows. I am a trained Steadicam Operator, and well versed on practically every modern camera system. In the Post Production world there isn’t a piece of software I haven’t touched; VFX, Editing, Coloring, you name it, I’m your man.
