I began my journey in 2001 taking a pay cut and working part time for Wisconsin Public Television as a Production Assistant. I was a grunt...but the Engineers and one editor encouraged me to learn how to use the camera, then learn how to edit and you will be a better Producer/Director/Writer/Videographer. 9 years later, 2 regional Emmy nomination and a number of films later, I am working on my best piece to date. Sacred Stick will hopefully be ready for air Fall 2010.
