I am an art teacher and video producer with a technical communications degree from the University of Central Florida.
I have broad knowledge of video & audio editing, scriptwriting & storyboarding, and using camera, sound, and lighting equipment. I’m especially knowledgeable when it comes to video journalism & news production from my time as a journalist and content producer for Cape Media News. In addition to my video experience, I am also a skilled multimedia artist who specializes in 2D illustration, and I currently teach art to students of all ages throughout Greater Boston.
