After graduating fromBennington College, I earned my Masters Degree in Film and Media Production at The New School in New York City. Early in my career I was selected as an 1st assistant camera operator for a music video shooting on a Chelsea rooftop. Spike Lee was producing a video for a little known back-up singer named Youssou N'Dour. Fast forward, moved to Virginia, got married and started my first job as a videographer and editor for a late night entertainment program called "BuzTV". Instructions? Go out and produce a sports insert every week and make it funny. Check. From there I moved on to the great outdoors and was DP/editor and co-producer for 70+ thirty-minute adventure programs. "Virginia Outdoor Life" was a lesson in location production on a dime. After an exhausting but satisfying 3 years in the outdoors I was approached to develop an educational program for kids. As luck would have it, my wife was a teacher and pretty good on camera. I was soon up and running on another 3 year labor of love. "Brain Stew" was a non-stop roller coaster ride, and we produced 3 episodes a month with a crew of 4. I shot and edited forty-five programs. Brain Stew was eventually syndicated in several markets on the east coast and was competing with some big players in educational television, but we managed to get on the top 10 list one year with the best of the best. In 2000, NASA called. I was offered a dream job to travel the world and film/edit/produce educational programs for the agency. After several successful series, including "NASA 360", I continue to film and edit "NASA X", airing on DIRECTV, NASA Television, Hulu, iTunes and cable. Last summer I photographed my first feature film,Aperture, and just completed a PBS documentary on Apollo's 50th anniversary, called Mission:Critical. With commercial and industrial production in-between, I've had the good fortune to photograph, edit and direct 6 series and over 400 programs.
