About John

I am a professor of Communication and Video Production and I enjoy working on journalism and documentary projects in addition to my teaching career. I have a Master of Fine Arts degree in documentary film, as well as having worked as a news videojournalist for a tv news station in Tucson, Az. I have excellent video production and editing skills, and I have storytelling experience in a variety of types and delivery platforms. As you will see in my samples, I am interested in telling stories about social justice and the environment. My previous work has taken me to Haiti, Colombia, Florida, and North Carolina, and I hope to have the opportunity to continue travelling the world to find great stories.

  • September 2017

    John was great about communicating throughout the process of our project and turned around what we were looking for very quickly. The football game he was shooting changed date and time, and he still got the job done.
