About

I am a video and editorial production specialist. From cutting promos, to creating show opens to researching sound bites I can perform a broad range of jobs. In my three years at Al Jazeera America I have honed my video and production skills. I can edit video my self or supervise an editor. Work with producers and senior producers to tell a story visually or enhance a story with sound and images. Cut promos or sound clips for social media. At Embassy Row I have honed my researching and producing skills working with a Senior Producer on shows episodes from scratch to delivery. During my masters at Columbia Journalism School I won the Nightly News workshop award which recognized my outstanding work in that course. Always looking to work with video and in production. I especially love challenges which get the creative juices flowing, because anyone can cut a soundbite or some Broll right? I can also write stories, tells, in house packages, teases etc. I love pitching stories and brain storming sessions. I just recently starting working on 360 degree/ VR videos also.
