Whether it's performing live on camera in front of hundreds of people, or editing alone on my computer in a poorly lit room, I love every aspect of media production. I moved to Toronto for broadcasting school and haven't looked back. I've worked in all major realms of media including radio, digital, print and television.
As a broadcaster I've covered traditional sports for live remotes and studio settings, as well as eSports, news and entertainment. As a video editor I've worked on profile interviews with former professional athletes, music videos for up and coming artists and original YouTube web series projects.
While most of my experience is in the realm sports, I aspire to learn every single aspect of my craft that I can, simply because I enjoy it all and want to become the best broadcaster that I possibly can.
