Getting Started

I've been doing video production, of one kind or another, since I was 11.  It has always been a passion and joy of mine, and for a while it was only a hobby.

In 2002, when my son was born, I started producing wedding and corporate videos "professionally", which basically meant that I was at least getting paid for my efforts.

I continued working as a Physical Therapist at University Medical Center until 2007, when the hospital offered me a media director position.  In one year, this position turned into exclusive internal and broadcast production for UMC's newly created in-house marketing department.

Now, I have my dream job.  Working with medical professionals and other staff members to produce educational and often humorous internal video, while being in charge of conceptualizing, writing, lighting, shooting, and editing our broadcast commercial campaigns along with our incredible marketing team.

I'm always kicking myself for my lack of initiative in documenting my productions for both the hospital and my side business, so I figured it was time to start a blog.

I'm starting this as my own record of where I've been and where I'm going in this profession, as I continue to learn and grow...which happens every single day.
