Emmy Award Winner:
The National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences
In 2017, I won a student Emmy for a video PSA. The It's On Us video that Franklin Pierce University put out was apart of President Obamas initiative towards sexual assault awareness, especially on college campuses. This short video represents hundreds of hours of work across several people, and I am proud to have been apart of it. I credited as the lighting director as well as an audio assistant, but I also served as an assistant editor.
​
The other video showcased here was submitted to the NATAS in 2019 for the live sports production catagory. This is a compilation of videos from some of the best games that I produced over the 2018/2019 school year. I managed a team of over 15 students and staff during these productions. I was in charge of setting up equipment, managing staff, fixing broken equipment, and troubleshooting errors before, during, and after the games.
While this video did not win an Emmy, it did recieve an Honorable Mention. It now serves as a trophy of its own to the hundreds of hours that I spent making theSports Broadcasts happen.
IT'S ON US
PSA
This PSA won me my first student Emmy in 2017. As stated above, I am credited as the lighting director and audio assistant for this video. This short video took months of hard work to produce, and spent we over a hundred hours working together to create a really powerful film taking a stance on sexual assault, and trying to raise awareness in our college community.

Live Sports Broadcast
This video won an Honorable Mention at the National Academy of Television Arts and Science. I was a producer of the majority of the basketball and lacrosse games that were broadcast from our school this year as part of the new live-streaming initiative with the NE-10. The university signed an agreement with them with stated that Franklin Pierce will be live broadcasting every home sports games they have within the next three years. I was apart of the launch of this initiative, and to commemorate our success, we entered the best of our live productions for a chance at an Emmy. This process meant we had to not only consider all of the equipment we needed, but work towards making that equipment work with our Internet, schedules, locations, and all of the other aspects of filming college sports.
