Starting in May of 2018 to May of 2023 I worked as a Videographer and Editor for ABC 12 news. Filmed and edited various news stories and covering numerous breaking stories such as the Sanford Dam failure, 2020 Mid Michigan BLM protests, Hogarth Ave house explosion, and the Oxford school shooting. I used both live trucks and live back-pack units to accomplish live shots. Assisted in event broadcast coverage in many community events such as Back to the Bricks, Crim Festival of Races, and Detroit Tigers Opening Day. I helped in the production of long form Targeted Specials news stories starting from pitching ideas for them to the completion of them.
