Janicek Entertainment, Inc. aka: Janicek Media CreativeMay 2015 – Feb 2020 (4 yrs 10 mos)I had the great honor to work for Xfinity Latino, a weekly national television show that combines entertainment and promotions for the products and services offered through Comcast/Xfinity. In 2015, I started as a junior editor tasked with assembling show footage and editing copy for close captioning. Before the production moved to Miami, I was in charge of producing and writing the weekly sports segment. The objective of this position was to promote and sell sporting/PPV events in an engaging and entertaining way.

In 2017, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work with Telemundo Denver on a number of promos and short form projects. In August of that year, I was given the role of EP for the show Tiempo Extra, a weekly sports show chronicling the Denver Broncos 2017 season. The show won "Best Sports Show in Denver" from the Colorado Broadcasters Association as well as an EMMY for "Best Commercial Campaign."

In 2014 I was given a contract to work for Group Publishing, a company that produces and sells Christian-based media, products, and services. I was tasked with the responsibility of writing/producing commercials and original content. During my time there I was fortunate enough to travel to Peru to shoot a series of human interest stories. To this day, those videos represent some of my best work.
