My educational background is a Bachelor's of Science in Industrial Engineering (2017) from New Mexico State University in Las Cruces, NM. After graduating, I spent a year working as a contract Industrial Engineer in the Midwest. I then moved to the San Fernando Valley of southern California and pivoted to media where I joined The Last Podcast Network. I got some great experience as Production Director and also as a co-host on Ben Kissel's political comedy podcast Abe Lincoln's Top Hat until December 2023. Next, I returned to NM and joined the a major TV network as a Digital Show Producer for KRQE News Channel 13. Here I have had the opportunity to direct, produce, write, and edit for some amazingly talented people including Chad Brummett on the Emmy-award winning NM Frontiers show, Investigative reporter Gabrielle Burkhart and Executive producer Chris McKee on their Edward R. Murrow winning New Mexico News Insiders video podcast, award winning anchors Jessica Garate and Dean Staley on the New Mexico Crime Files digital show, and with 30 year sports veteran anchor/reporter Van Tate on several sports coverage shows.
Additionally, I actively manage a small IT Security and IT Support business I started in October 2023, CDXX DCLXVI. At this time, I am not accepting any new clients to my portfolio.
Professional development:
Currently, I'm working on my Certified Associate in Project Management (CAPM) and ASQ-Six Sigma Green Belt certifications in addition to constantly brushing up my data analytics and data visualization skills through Coursera certifications.

In my free time:
When I'm not making TV shows or working on data analytics, I raise freshwater shrimp and develop my own indie games! I document some of my aquarium escapades on YouTube and released my first solo dev indie game on September 2022 while continuing to develop more. Feel free to check out my videos or play my games on Maelstronando Itch.io and give me feedback!
