I take pride in my multifaceted knowledge of post production and all things digital. I love solving problems and I love weaving video into the fabric of the web. During my time as Post Production Supervisor and Senior Editor at Answers Media (one of Chicago's largest production facilities) I helped build the post production department into a well-oiled machine and created the standards for which all media was managed and delivered to end users. I supervised all deliverables and consulted clients to suggest the best specification for their unique needs. My expertise, management style and communication skills helped the bottom line and improved client satisfaction. I created best practices, informed colleagues and clients, and integrated new hardware and software into the facility. From Fortune 20 companies and post-houses to individual projects, I enable clients to incorporate video into rich, integrated visual experiences using my deep understanding of media encoding and distribution technologies.
As an editor, I am one who enjoys working to satisfy the demands of my clientele. Refusing to become an editor with limited scope, I apply my craft as storyteller, artist and technician to each project I undertake. To see my work in motion, check out my demo reels. My editorial experience includes:

- Online editorial for national ad agencies including compositing and effects
- Creative editorial for television and web ads playing nationwide
- Creative editorial for a variety of long-form projects

Previously, I worked in Michigan at Communicore and Milagro Post, boutique post facilities where I served a diverse clientele from national and local ad agencies to marketing and PR firms to independent producers. Clients included Chevrolet, the U.S. Navy, Ford Motor Company and the Detroit Medical Center, among others.

My experience is listed in greater detail on my resume but you can also check out other stuff I do.
