POST PRODUCTION SPECIALIST
With a strong background in the areas of Production, Post Production, file based workflows, and media management, my experience has proven that Post Production is imperative to the initial stages of creative, it cannot be an after thought. Delivery is the ULTIMATE goal; make it as pain free & uncomplicated as you can and your production wraps on a high note every time.
With an eye toward the future, I enjoy proactively identifying new technologies that increase efficiencies, speed to market, improve quality and maintain a competitive advantage. Staying within budget is always a bonus!
Whats the "secret sauce"? Embracing my inner geek as well as establishing and maintaining ongoing post-production vendor relationships.
