I'm from Toronto, with the ability to produce video and photo content. I studied television broadcasting and photojournalism in two separate college courses over the last ten years, and have been freelancing since 2010. Since then, I've served clients from the international news wire to individuals and everything in-between. I'm a seasoned traveler, having been on five continents. I relish new opportunities for learning to satisfy a curious mind, and always enjoy working with people of diverse backgrounds. My passport is current and I'm happy to travel for work. I speak five languages with varying aptitude, and can say "hi" in at least a dozen more. While my video work isn't yet integrated into my website, you can find short examples of local news-feature content I've created on my Vimeo page at https://vimeo.com/giofotoimg Thanks for checking out my profile, I look forward to creating attractive visuals to engage your viewers and tell unique stories.
