About Me

I've always been fascinated by the invisible decisions that make people feel something.

The timing of a cut.The weight of silence before a sentence lands.The texture of a voice after the noise is stripped away.

That obsession with intentional editing turned into a career built around high-pressure production, technical problem solving, and storytelling that feels human.

Over the past 7 years, I've produced and supported more than 1,000 live broadcasts annually across healthcare, finance, education, and podcast media, often serving as the person people rely on when something breaks minutes before air. I've handled real-time troubleshooting during high-visibility broadcasts, rebuilt workflows to improve production efficiency, and earned expanded creative responsibilities after being recognized internally for editing quality and initiative.

But the work I'm most proud of usually starts long before the final export.

I've helped transform raw conversations into audience-building media ecosystems. I led post-production and branding for The Energy Code, helping grow the podcast to thousands of monthly listeners through intentional editing, motion graphics, and high-retention short-form storytelling. My social edits for podcasts and interview content have generated tens of thousands of engagements by focusing less on algorithms and more on emotional pacing, narrative tension, and authenticity.

At KnowFully Learning Group, I became known for bridging the gap between technical operations and creative production, building checklists, improving QA systems, training teammates, refining equipment testing workflows, and stepping into increasingly specialized editing and media responsibilities. What motivates me most is solving problems before they become disasters and raising the bar on quality wherever I work.

I'm especially drawn to stories rooted in reality.

History, science, human conflict, overlooked details, the kinds of subjects that don't need exaggeration to be compelling. I believe media professionals are modern historians in a way. We preserve moments, voices, and ideas that would otherwise disappear into noise. That's why I care deeply about listening well, staying collaborative, and treating every project with a sense of responsibility.

Whether I'm editing multicam interviews, restoring damaged audio, designing motion graphics, troubleshooting a live signal chain, or shaping documentary-style narratives, I approach production with the same mindset:

Every frame, every sound, and every decision should serve the story.

Outside of production, I spend most of my time exploring historical sites, studying narrative structure, training MMA, playing Magic: The Gathering, and getting out into nature with my wife and dogs.
