Video is a powerful unrivaled medium. At its best, it has the power to connect, reveal, and drive people to action. At its worst, it can divide, obfuscate, and cause idleness. What keeps me going after 15 years in this medium - my driving motivation - is the unique way video can bring us all together. While I firmly believe that the best work is done when egos are left at the door, I have been a part of many success stories in my time as a producer and video production executive.I can take an abstract vision and make it a reality. Through my years producing video content for various commercial, non-profit, and corporate clients, I have been able to form strong creative and collaborative partnerships. Video creation can be hard work, lead to long hours, and be expensive, but it can also be enjoyable! I work hard to make sure projects come in on time and on budget, but I also strive to provide clients with a positive memorable experience.I can manage, motivate, and mentor teams of all sizes. I believe excellence doesn't just mean a high-quality product, but a high-quality experience for all involved. Building up others is the best way to achieve. When a team is properly supported and encouraged, and clear agreements are in place, anything is possible!I have deep and intimate knowledge of all parts of the production pipeline. I know what it takes to onboard clients, cultivate their ideas, and develop their visions. I have hired large and small teams, planned shoots, booked locations, cast films, purchased props and costumes, and everything else under the sun. I've shot entire videos, put up lights, and acted as a field producer. I've edited commercials and feature-length documentaries. I've worked with composers and sound designers. And I've consulted on the variety of deliverables needed for an ever-changing social media and digital marketplace.Industry SkillsCreative Development | Producing | Customer Experience | Project Management | Establish & Manage BudgetsInterpersonal SkillsEmpathy | Managing teams | Creativity | Persuasion | Collaborative Problem SolvingTechnical ProficienciesAdobe Creative Cloud | Microsoft 365 & G-Suites | Asana & Monday.com | Digital Camera Systems | Production Lighting & Audio
