I feel at my most comfortable in front of a crowd. In my experiences, I have done live training for groups of over 100 attendees and down to small group sessions of a few learners. My current day to day is with online training with similarly sized groups. Training participants seek out education with a pain point in mind. I design actionable training that drills in on that pain and provides real-life solutions that they can enact right away. I am a servant leader at heart and I am often the person my teammates come to when they are looking for advice. I am approachable and have always been the “go-to” guy to assist other departments when they are in need. I love to help others and I have found that training the best way I have found to be a resource to as many people as possible.

Video producer. Marketing Cheat Codes podcast showrunner. Animator. My main goals are to educate and entertain. At Aprimo, a B2B SaaS company, I am the primary resource for development of video, audio, photography, and motion graphics-based projects across departments. Playing a critical role in the global brand experience through digital media deliverables and processes that guide marketing and field efforts, I have a continued focus on Aprimo’s overall visual representation and customer experience, both online and in-person. My background is in education, events, documentary production and advertising, with projects that have been used at international conferences, screened at major film festivals, played on television, radio, and print. After early work at Leo Burnett and leading student filmmaking programs with Adobe at Cannes and Sundance, I completed a Master of Science in Digital Cinema Production. The classroom was still calling my name, so I taught advanced multimedia courses at a college prep school in Chicago, then moved on to manage the video studio and create curriculum content for the first fully accredited online culinary program. Over the past decade I also worked on large-scale physical events, and spent several years as project manager for a virtual event and live-streaming platform, building digital experiences and global product launches for tech companies, nonprofits, and publishers. When I'm not working or volunteering, you can find me going analog, exploring parks and nature with a film camera in hand.
