While at Pointroll, I worked on our most strategic accounts to conceptualize and produce innovative custom work. As a leader within the third-party ad serving industry, I bridged the gap between creative and technical teams to support growth of our video advertising revenue 60% YOY. I developed new ad products and capabilities for marketers in social, commerce, out of home and personalized video ads. I traveled and spoke nationally to handle the research, development, prototyping, and product development -- through internal team training and release for the company. I participated in various IAB standards groups defining industry guidelines in areas of creative specs, HTML5, video ad delivery (VAST/VPAID) and MRAID.

Big Sky Audio was a major multi-room music production studio. For 10 years, I grew from an intern, production assistant to an engineer in our three production suites and live room. I handled live sound and production for Philadelphia radio stations, WMMR and WMGK, and for bands Third Eye Blind, Blackstone Cherry, and Shinedown to name a few. During my time at Big Sky, I learned video production and post production supporting music videos, infomercials, and feature films. This quickly ramped me in lighting, camera technology, color correction, editing, transcoding, and motion graphics.
