::Spring 09::

In April I worked on, Obama's First 100 Days - a 1-hour special for BET. The show featured a panel discussion and roll-in packages highlighting President Obama first 100 days in office.

The half-hour doc I cut last fall, Heart of The City, has been nominated for a NABJ award (see clip to the right).

:: Winter 09 ::

This winter I had the opportunity to edit several scenes for an upcoming feature documentary by filmmaker Diane Houslin. The film follows the life of a former high school track star struggling to regain his former glory.

Also worked on a series of corporate videos for Pfizer, Inc.

:: Fall 08 ::

My Fall highlight was cutting a half-hour doc for BET News titled, Heart of the City: Chicago's War on Violence. The documentary takes an inside look at the gun violence ravaging Chicago’s neighborhoods and the impact it has on the lives of Black youths.

:: Summer 08::

It was an extremely busy summer season for me this year. I kicked it off in June, cutting :30 promos for BET's (You)th Vote campaign.

In July, I cut a 1-hour doc for MSNBC's Born In The Wrong Body series, titled "All In The Family". The show follows the life of a pre and post pubesent female who wishes to live life as a male.

In August I went on the road with BET News to cover the Democratic and Republic National Conventions in Denver and Minnesota, respectively. I mostly cut news packages and 1:00 news briefs covering the events and surrounding issues.
