I've cut several 15+ long form sports journalism stories The Athletic's brand new video platform. I add value by making producing decisions in the edit room. I can be left alone with little direction to craft compelling stories.

"Finding Giannis" is about 2019 NBA MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo. I was the co-editor on the documentary. The director and I worked at a breakneck pace for three weeks to get it ready to air on TNT during All Star Weekend.

"Jackson Wild" was a one hour reality show about a competitive kayaking family for Travel Channel. I worked without the aid of a story producer, combed through large volumes of footage, and crafted the story on my own.

I successfully cut scenes and honed structure, by finding narrative threads out of hours of verite footage. I brought out each character's true essence, and effectively crafted tension, comedy, and drama for each episode that I worked on.

I directed and edited this short film about the first permanent housing initiative for homeless veterans in the United States.

I produced, shot, and cut a pitch reel that helped green light the ten episode series. As a Co-Executive Producer, I worked directly with Leftfield Pictures (producers of Pawn Stars) on the series. I found locations, managed casting, and acquired rights and clearances. After principle photography wrapped, I reviewed cuts, provided feedback, and helped the editors craft the arc of each episode. "Chasing Tail" aired in April 2013, and averaged one million viewers per week.
