I am a Southern California native that recently moved back from Jackson, Wyoming where I worked as a post-production intern for the production company Teton Gravity Research. I graduated from Brooks Institute of Photography in 2006 majoring in video editing for television and commercials.  While there I also had the opportunity to work on a few short films and hone my editing skills in the process.  After school, I began to teach video editing using Final Cut Pro at a local learning resource center for both beginning and intermediate users.  After two years of teaching, I took a job as a lead video editor at Lynda.com where I managed a team of editors and made sure deadlines were met and a quality product was delivered.  While there, I also helped to create a motion graphics department to help meet the growing needs of the company and created a new workflow for video compression
