I'm a video producer and director with 15+ years of experience creating corporate content, interviews, and branded storytelling. I've directed hundreds of interviews with executives, subject matter experts, and clients, managing everything from pre-production through post-delivery. My work spans corporate video, documentary-style content, and a YouTube channel with 65K+ subscribers and 15+ million views.
What sets me apart is my dual expertise: I can confidently direct a CEO interview while also understanding the technical pipeline that makes production efficient. I know how to put clients at ease on camera, craft compelling narratives, and deliver polished final products; but I also bring a systems-thinking approach that optimizes workflows and eliminates production bottlenecks.
As Post-production Manager at The Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I led both the creative and technical sides, managing workflows and standards for a 10-person Adobe Premiere Pro editing team while building the network infrastructure (288TB NAS, automation scripts, custom motion graphics templates) that enabled seamless collaboration, both remotely and in-office. This combination of client-facing production skills and technical fluency means I can manage the full scope of video projects from concept to delivery.
Whether I'm directing executive interviews, managing production workflows, or color grading in DaVinci Resolve, I focus on creating high-quality content efficiently and professionally.

"As Jim’s manager at Integrative Nutrition for eight years, he kept me sane during times of great overwhelm. He led and mentored our team of editors; he established and trained a color grading team; he established standards and protocols for everything from GFX placement to project organization; and he directed, shot and edited amazing video projects."
"Between 2019 and 2023, we worked in the same video production department at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition. Jim managed our editing team, teaching them to color grade, mix audio, and execute precise and effective video cuts. He took the lead on reviewing final videos and also created the file organization template that the entire department used. This proved very useful when creating the edit files for dozens of new videos and archiving hundreds more. Jim is not only a team player, he's a team builder. If there's one person you want leading your video editing team, don't look any further."
"I worked alongside Jim for several years at IIN. His work ethic, attention to detail, passion for learning, and staying attuned to new tech and industry trends really set him apart. He supervised a team of editors with ease, implementing effective workload management and establishing high post-production standards. Jim constantly sought out new tools and techniques to improve and streamline workflows. He loves diving into complex technical challenges to ensure he and his team are equipped equipped with the best tools and strategies. Plus, his fantastic sense of humor made even the most intense projects enjoyable."
"Jim excelled in concepting and executing production shoots, both on site and in studio, though his post production expertise allowed him to become a true creative director for Oktane's varied entertainment offerings. He has a keen eye for pace, shot composition and style, while his directorial demeanor is spirited and outgoing. His technical knowledge is also second to none, which is an under-the-radar skill set that is so critical in a live, real time production environment. I highly recommend Jim for your production or post production needs, and I look forward to working alongside him again one day soon."
"Jim is a terrific individual I've worked with in the past and would be glad to work with again in the future- He does quality work consistently and expertly. I'd recommend him without hesitation or compunction. He's a pro and treats projects, large and small with a strong attention to detail, a keen sense of style and an understanding of the bottom line. He's honest, forthright and strives to exceed expectations every time."
"Working with Jim on our high pressure, intense shoot this May for our TV pilot was a great experience. He's calm in the eye of the storm, expert at managing people, easy to get along with, a quick learner, knows his stuff, and has a nice creative bent. His suggestions & opinions were very valuable, and he was a key member of our team. My partner and I very much enjoyed working with him & I will hire him again in the coming months to work on our show & other productions."
