Career Story
I had a very tough time in high school. The traditional school model was challenging for me. I failed classes and repeated years in high school. Had high ambitions for a career in the arts, but low on hope at that point. College was different, as the whole program focused on my interests. I was able to get a job in both Radio & Television in my first year (as well as freelance work) At CTV I worked my way up from part time tech opp, to full time, to full time motion designer, to full time creative producer.
I also now teach part time at Conestoga College for advanced post production.
