Describe a recent event you are fond of.
NGAUS 2020
This was an event at the national guard museum celebrating the National Guards birthday. I was hired as a camera operator, ENG style. I make it a habit to say thank you for your services "to every person I see in the military uniform or whom I recognized as a military service person. I have been doing this for years to show appreciation for the sacrifices our service members make for us to remain free. I was able to thank the highest ranking officer in the United States military at this event. I was very proud knowing I am headed in the right direction being trusted to operate in such a high profile and prestigious event
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a pro in your area of expertise?
You really get what you pay for; bottom line. I would always suggest looking into the details of a professionals experience and find a person that is still open to learning and perfecting their craft. Consistency is the strongest attribute I would seek as perfection is nearly unobtainable. Consistency comes from pride, practice, trial and error, and experience. I am a composite of all of the professionals I have worked with and trained by. I try to honor my teachers and mentors by remaining teachable and consistent.
