My philosophy of what I believe I'm meant to do: I am seeking opportunities to positivity inspire my community, nation, and world through storytelling. I believe we can better envision the holistic picture by openly addressing a subject from all angles without bias and crafting visually informative content. By using cross-platformed multi-media, we can bridge the gaps in generational, socially economic, racial and religious prospective to diversely obtain a greater understand of one-another. I attempt to do this by giving a voice to those who don’t have one in traditional media. Through this process, I have reflectively found that people are not different, but rather seeking the same thing for their selves and their loved ones. |
My Career: Over the past 25 years I have had the pleasure of playing an intricate roll in telling the stories that shape our world. As an Editorial and Content Producer at ABC News, Good Morning America: 1999-2013 I covered momentous global event such as presidential campaigns elections, and funerals, 9/11, political news and events, royal weddings, elections of popes, conflicts and wars, influential lives and deaths, terrorism events foreign and domestic, major trials and court cases, natural disasters, medical concerns, outbreaks, treatments, and breakthroughs, economical bears and bulls, social trends, technical troubles and triumphs, celebrity news, weddings, and scandals, pop culture, and breaking news. As it was an honor to cover those events and inform a nation, it was the overcoming adversity pieces that I loved the most. My all-time favorite was about an amazing girl who was allergic to 95% of all foods. Her story is inspiring. Take a look! |

I was able to fulfill one of my childhood dreams and be in the locker-room and on the bench with the Detroit Redwings as they fought for a Stanley Cup. At 3:07 I even have a cameo at the end skating on the ice as the anchors of the show talk about me. Pretty special

As you can see, I love telling overcoming adversity stories and stories of success. This one was indeed special and close to my heart. It was such an inspiration to tell individual stories of triumph with these athletes striving for perfection and a honor to go inside their world in-which not many have the privilege to be welcomed into

What a fun piece to produce. When you have the opportunity to mix nine music tacks, dozens of celebrities , introduce the world to Harvey Levin and create over 100 video elements inside a 3:27 video piece, you take it. This was truly a multi-media creative work of love. Yeah, I could have made it eraser on myself and my editor but what's the fun in that?
