About Me

I am a 2014 Telecommunications Graduate of Youngstown State. I am a 2007 graduate of Niles McKinley High
School in Niles, Ohio.

From 2007 - 2010 I attended Kent State University at Trumbull in Warren, Ohio where I was in Pre Education
and switched to computer technology before transferring to Youngstown State in Fall of 2010.

From 2015 - 2018 I worked at WKBN-TV / WYTV in Youngstown, Ohio. My first role was a production assistant doing studio work, graphics, video editing, and commercial shoots as well as a camera operator for sporting events. I was then promoted in spring of 2018 to overnight videographer where I would shoot breaking news and edit footage as well as conduct interviews and coordinate live shots.

I work per diem with Youngstown State University Athletics working with the Athletics Communications during broadcast of sporting events. In this roll I will either produce, direct, run camera or operate graphics for on-line streaming.

I spent 10 summers working in ride operations at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio; with the last five out ten leadership now refereed to as a ride supervisor. During this time I maintained a excellent work
ethic an symbolized Cedar Fair's cornerstones of Courtesy, Safety, Service, Cleanliness, and Integrity.
