I've worked in TV since my early days of High School. Pulling wires and setting up for our sports games was exciting, and what ultimately inspired me to pursue broadcasting as a career.
After 20 years and 2700+ productions under my belt, I continue to provide quality video production expertise within my industry. My versatile field, editing and management experience has opened all sorts of fascinating opportunities in broadcast TV from a freelance and employment perspective.
