Entering college, I was what I would call, "anti-technology." I would rather write a 20-page book report than make a five-slide PowerPoint. But as a journalism major, I was exposed to technologically-... heavy courses like photography and videography which forced me to face my "anti-technology" fears. Throughout these courses, I was fortunate enough to be led by incredible faculty members that helped me navigate this new world, and in turn, instill a new and deeply driven passion in me. The more I became immersed in these filming and editing courses, the more I fell in love with the craft. After graduating, I began to work professionally as a filmmaker focusing on filming and editing promotional content for businesses of all sizes. From farmer's market vendors to corporate organizations, I worked and continue to work closely with a variety of clients to bring their visions to life. While this environment is far from the classroom, I always try and take the opportunity to educate the clients I work with. Through this dialogue with them about how we can execute their vision, we are both able to learn. The experiences and conversations that I have with clients, carry over to the classes I teach as an adjunct professor. For the past 5 years, I have had the great fortune of sharing my passion for video production with students of all levels and I look forward to getting to work with you! I edit all of my projects on Adobe Premiere Pro and am also familiar with iMovie, ClipChamp and Canva. If you use another software, I am still more than happy to discuss editing strategies to help you bring your visions to life! read more

Hi! My name is Ben! I'm a former college baseball player who now works in career development and as a college professor. Before returning to higher education, I worked as a freelance videographer part... nering with businesses of all sizes. Through tutoring on a multitude of subjects ranging from video production to writing to graphic design and public speaking, I have found that a good life isn't made up of any one thing. One should not hold their identity solely in work, school, sport, or anything else that is being pursued. Instead, acknowledge these different aspects of life and observe how they all work together to create a beautiful, well-rounded person. These ideas are exactly why I'm here! I hope to help you learn something new or improve on skills you already have! Please always feel free to reach out with any questions you have. I am here to help, and I look forward to scheduling a lesson together!read more
