Digital Media • Video Production

me.

I am an award-winning creative producer with a strong background in delivering impactful experiences using the latest technologies and innovations.

My projects have encompassed a wide range of topics and challenges.  Exhibit and tradeshow multimedia experiences, museum installations, CMS enabled iPad and iPhone programs, websites, corporate videos, mechanism of action animations, and VR & AR applications.  I have led small teams of programmers and designers, while also being very comfortable in the role of the “one-man marching band.”

Beyond the creative, I’m also well-versed in the nitty gritty of getting a project produced. Planning and timelines, seeking out vendors and freelancers, hiring production crews, overseeing setups and teardowns, budgeting, writing, SOWs, RFPs, and RFIs.  Because many of my projects have been in the life-science arena, I’m equally familiar with the minutia of legal and medical compliance.

I’m a problem solver at heart. I constantly strive to remove the obstacles that stand in the way of my team delivering their very best work. I have developed a management style that instills independence and creativity while providing a strong sense of purpose with clearly defined goals.
