About
Greetings and Salutations! My story began in a tiny farming community in IL. However, my love of performing carried me across the US to Los Angeles, where performances don't just fall on deaf ears ... of corn. While on the west coast, I cut my teeth as a performer (stage, film, VO) and editor (audio, photo). After 6 years, I met the girl of my dreams and moved back to IL... Chicago area, this time. In light of my past, I enjoy the outdoors and my preferred mode of transportation is by motorcycle (when I can).

We start with a script, and I give it the first pass: recording guide vocals, finding sound bites from the show (if necessary), and adding music/sound effects. Sometimes, I will also record the talent in the final spot.

OneWay Ministries
Jun 2013 – Aug 2013
Aurora, IL
Video Editor Intern
The main focus of the video team this summer is on Prayer Cast videos, a ministry that OneWay has been working on for a couple of years. The process in creating these videos includes getting a recorded prayer from a particular country praying for the specific needs of that country, finding amateur cinematographers who have shot footage of that country, and requesting permission to use that footage. We then piece that together to match the prayer, which also has some background music added to it. These videos are then posted online to encourage people to pray for the various countries in the world. The goal is to create a video featuring every country on planet Earth.
