The Outside The Lines ESPN Show I worked on has just been nominated for two Emmy's this year; Outstanding Sports News Anthology and Outstanding Sports Journalism. I'm proud to have been apart of the team. I hope that in shedding light on such an important subject, it makes an impact amongst schools throughout the nation.

Thats A Wrap With Damon Dash
Dash Diabetes Network is a lifestyle network series targeted to a diverse audience of diabetics and non-diabetics alike. The community consists of musicians, filmmakers, actors, entrepreneurs, holistic doctors, and everyday people to educate and share experiences they’ve had with diabetes. For so long talk of the disease has stayed within the sterile medical community making it an unappealing topic to publically discuss. We want to introduce a new narrative to the discussion.
It's been an awesome opportunity to learn more about this disease to create content alongside Damon that will truly help millions of people around the World. I'm looking forward the series launch and seeing the publics response.

Music Video Shenanigans
It's so much fun to see the shot you've been honing in on all day after adjustments in blocking and various tweaks. Music videos are a ton of fun and usually, as long as it serves the story, they give you the creative freedom to pretty much do whatever is fun. This shot was taken right after achieving the take we had been working on all day.
