"Truth to Power"
June 9th, 2010 · Comments Off · Journalism, Manhattan, Multimedia
If I had to name the piece of work that I am most proud of from my time at Columbia, I would tell you without a doubt that it was “Truth to Power.” Actually, hypotheticals aside, “Truth to Power” is my proudest moment from my time at Columbia. My partner, Evan Wexler and I, were [...]

February 2nd, 2010 · 2 Comments · Brooklyn, Humor, Journalism, Manhattan, Multimedia

My buddy Fred Dreier reached out to me after hooking up with Competitor Magazine offering for us to film the ING New York City Marathon for them. It was a long day, but it was really incredible seeing 40,000 runners and what felt like all of New York cheering them on. I handled the filming, [...]

Feline agility. Yes, it is a real sport
October 19th, 2009 · 2 Comments · Journalism, Manhattan, Multimedia
[blip.tv ?posts_id=2757528&dest=-1] One of the few things you can get my whole family to agree to watch on TV is dog agility competitions.
