About Me

Sports Producer. Storyteller. Leader.
From the moment I saw my first NFL Films documentary on the 1976 Oakland Raiders, I fell in love with sports documentary and feature content. It's what led me to go on to intern with NFL Films, become a producer/editor with NFL Network and lead the Washington Capitals video production department.
​
I've excelled at leading original content projects through every level of production from storyboarding and pre-production to post production and delivery. 
​
Everyone worth their weight in salt will have a great reel at this point, what separates me is my respect for everyone on my team above and below me. I've made mistakes, but never the same one twice. With me there is no complaining, no frustration, no excuses, only challenges waiting to be met and exceeded.
