I graduated from Washburn University in 2017 with a bachelor's degree in mass media with an emphasis in contemporary journalism and a minor in history. While at Washburn, I served in various capacities for the Washburn Review, including as a writer and managing editor where I led the team to produce our weekly printed edition, ensuring deadlines were met and quality was maintained. Around the same time, I started writing for SpaceFlight Insider and eventually served as its managing editor where I helped grow the website's traffic from under 120K to roughly 300K monthly viewers. I am currently creating content about the International Space Station and Artemis Moon program for Orbital Velocity. While I started my professional journey as a writer, Orbital Velocity is pushing me to acquire all sorts of new skills, including video editing, graphic design, visual storytelling, animation, and so much more!

Hello my name is Brian, and I am a video and marketing professional. While honing and fostering my video productions skills, I also earned a BSBA in Marketing from Xavier University. I love incorporating the ideas and insights I gain from my marketing and psychology background into my video work, and I love to examine the motivations behind the feelings that stories give us. I am a strong leader with experience leading groups, clubs, and I am an Eagle Scout. I am young in experience, but I can guarantee you I have the talent to make any project come to life. I pride myself in knowing that others admire my attention to detail in my shooting and editing, and I know that it is only a matter of time before my video resume will be extensive. Before becoming a freelancer I have worked in corporate video as an internal video production manager. Along with working with video companies and other videographers, I have also taken on solo projects with brands and businesses. With these projects I help businesses hone their marketing strategy first and then handle all aspects of production, while maintaining that strategy throughout. Some of my freelancing gigs have taken me around the country to places like San Diego and Las Vegas to shoot recap videos for Tony Robbins events. These experiences include fast-paced shooting and editing, bringing together a recap video that plays at the end of the 4-day-long event. I would love to show you what I can offer to your project, and I look forward to working with you soon!

I have been a singer/songwriter my entire life. My mother, however, was the only videographer out of an entire polynesian communtiy. Somewhere between touring Europe on a music contract at 17 and marrying my best friend and having 4 children, I have become my mother and love videography. Started out with weddings and made a killing and then editing was taking all of my time. I have now transitioned into more of what I can direct and create. Currently I have been helping more with small businesses, with social media presence and social media advertisements. I create "shorts" conent as well as docustyle film. I consider myself the greatest teammate of all time. I love sports and I love winning. You'd have to be pretty bad at this not to be able to create your own game winning shot every time. Most videographers film. I capture. Hope to hear from you soon!
