Looking for someone to bring your show concept to life? With experience working with top brands like Disney, YouTube, Sony PlayStation, iHeartMedia, and FanDuel, I specialize in transforming simple ideas into successful productions. Whether it’s a small concept or a large-scale yearly event, I excel in building show rundowns, production schedules, and calendars, while managing budgets. With the skills and experience to execute quickly, I can get your project up and running within weeks.
If your team needs support in key production roles, I bring experience in building run of show formats, production scheduling, floor producing, graphics management, live playback producing, and music supervision. These are just a few of the positions I’ve successfully handled.
If post-production services are what you need, I have extensive experience in offline and online editing, sound mixing, and both traditional in-person and remote workflows. Using tools like Frame.io and Evercast, I can efficiently edit and manage notes and approvals, even from thousands of miles away.
This is my Demo Reel which features several productions I was lucky enough to produce in my career. I edited this on Adobe Premiere.
Shooting at an amusement park is challenging, but shooting at two amusement parks takes it to the next level. In 2016, when our hosts couldn’t be in the same location for the Disney Channel Holiday special, we used the power of television to bring them together. Check out the opening music video, 'Jolly To The Core,' filmed on separate days at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA, and Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL.
For ten years, I had the honor of producing the Scientific & Technical Awards (Sci-Tech Awards) ceremony for The Academy (AMPAS). This prestigious event celebrates the innovators behind the special effects, props, and software that shape the magic of motion pictures. I had the privilege of collaborating with renowned hosts including Margot Robbie & Miles Teller, Olivia Munn & Jason Segel, Leslie Mann & John Cho, Sir Patrick Stewart, David Oyelowo, Simu Liu, Natasha Lyonne and Diego Luna.
In 2020, at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, many in Television & Film had to quickly adapt. I was fortunate to produce remotely on post-production heavy projects like 'The Disney Family Singalong Vol 2' and 'Dear Class of 2020.' These experiences taught us what happens when you bring together the cast of the hit comedy series 'Schitt's Creek' and music icon Mariah Carey on a video call.
Producing content remotely is possible, even when your talent is in another country or stuck at home. However, it’s not as simple as turning on your laptop, webcam, and hoping the wifi holds up. Ensuring quality video requires careful planning. I have extensive experience in both live and taped remote production, including the 2020 Emmy Awards, where all nominees were Zoomed live into the broadcast. Here’s a clip of one of the nominees I produced, Jeremy Strong from Succession.
Behind-the-scenes featurettes are some of my favorite bonus content on DVD and Blu-ray discs. Often, the story of how a project was made is just as fascinating, if not more so, than the project itself. Check out this quick BTS bumper I produced for A Christmas Story Live, which aired on FOX.
If you’re looking for full-length documentary producing, I’ve spent the last eight years working on my passion project, The School of Hard Knocks. This documentary tells the story of a legendary professional wrestling school, whose alumni have worked in every major organization worldwide, and the turmoil that nearly tore them apart. Check out the trailer.
