I was one of those folks in the 80's that rented a video camera that was tethered to a VHS record deck from the local video rental spot; that was my introduction to using video as a medium for storytelling. Since I was a teenager I have been interested in documenting life and displaying it in a creative form.

Most of my work today consists of promos and corporate videos, each of which has their storytelling aspects.

I started off as a camera operator before moving into editing, and as many editors will tell you, being able to "shoot for edit" is a huge plus, and that is one of the skills you gain by doing both.

One of the best things about this business is the variety of the material you get to work with, and the variety of situations you will encounter. My work in media has taken me from doing camera ringside at WWE events to cutting a short documentary about residential school survivors; the range of material we get to work with in this business keeps it interesting.
