Some career highlights...
WGBH News
I have worked part-time at WGBH News since October, 2017. In December of last year I had the honor to edit two packages for the 20th Anniversary Show of Emily Rooney’s “Beat the Press”. They must have liked the show - we were awarded an Emmy in June of 2019.
NBC News
I worked in the NBC News Boston/New England bureau with national correspondents Lisa Myers and Fred Briggs, and producer Tom Keenan. We travelled to story locations in New England and Canada, where we edited and "fed" stories to NBC Nightly News on deadline in the days before Skype or cheap satellite trucks. At the time I was the youngest editor (early 20s) on staff at NBC News.
Monitor Channel (Christian Science monitor)
I was as an online editor in this oasis of old-school television journalism (get the facts, get them right, THEN go on the air!) I'm proud and humble to say that one of the shows I edited won a regional Emmy in 1990.
Avid technology
I was hired to test "Unity", the first shared storage system of its kind for post-production, the forerunner of all such systems for video today. I tested it from an "editor's perspective", identifying bugs and making suggestions to improve its usability.
DIGINOVATIONS, INC
I was senior editor, associate producer, and the de-facto engineer. I converted this six-seat shop from PC/Adobe to Mac/FCP, upgrading the shared storage system and adding media management as we transitioned from a tape-based workflow to a file-based one. And I won or helped win six Telly awards for the company.
producer/director/Editor "Eat Well, Be Happy"
"EWBH" is a cooking show distributed nationally to cable-access stations, hosted by natural food guru Debra Stark. What started as a modest effort grew into a five-camera live-to-disk show recorded on location. We are now the show downloaded the most by other cable stations in the US, over 13,000 downloads at last count.
instructor, maine media workshops
I have taught basic Final Cut X at the Maine Media Workshops since 2013.
