At 13 i was the paperboy in port of Athens, Greece. At 18 i was reading Paul Virilio trying to understand mass media & communication theories for college degree. At 19 i was reporting live on news radio. At 20 i was told i should drop radio for live TV. For next 6 years my news reporting repertoire spanned anything from an elephant's birthday to Athens street gangs violence, to dead sea lions to Middle East conflict zones and Olympic Games. One day i was told i should drop reporting for hosting breaking news. After a year of reading the teleprompter under intense studio lights (it felt like chicken broiler) at age 26 i moved to New York. At 28 i finished my photojournalism studies at ICP in NY. At 29 i signed as the NY Bureau Chief for ERT / Hellenic Broadcasting Corp. At 35 i founded IFFI Productions and Old Garage Studio in Brooklyn. Been around the globe few times and seems that i can't escape NYC. Cheers.

Josh advises on creative for The Democrats. He served in the Obama Administration as Director of Digital Strategy for the Department of Labor with Tom Perez. Josh directed videos to help Tom win the DNC Chair race. Josh also was the Digital Video Director for the DNC Convention in Philly– which until helping a lot of campaigns win in Virginia this November, was also the last time he felt truly happy. Josh’s commitment to telling the narrative of the field has taken him to 47 states. He hopes you can help him get to the final three, and you’re welcome to guess what they are. Josh is just your run-of-the-mill Asian Jew from Tulsa, OK. He produced digital content for both Obama campaigns and was part of the initial team at Tom Steyer’s NextGen Climate/America/Everything. As Content Director, he traveled the path of the Keystone XL pipeline and told the plight of people across America affected by climate issues. After producing content for 7 races in the 2014 midterms, he took time off from face-punching climate deniers to conceive and carry out a citizen-empowering documentary on rising sea levels in the Maldives. This Bourdain-style travel series focuses on the human face of climate change around the world. LAST GLIMPSE has screened at conferences, universities, and Soho Houses across the U.S. PBS has expressed serious interest in running a full season – the whole experience has been very awesome. Josh usually doesn’t write in the 3rd person, so he tries to have fun with it. And honestly, would you prefer some stock LinkedIn dribble? Josh has produced work shared by National Geographic, The New York Times, TIME, Variety, The Washington Post, @BarackObama, @HillaryClinton, the Crooked Media guys – and a lot of other people that tweet better than the sitting President.

With a strong visual eye and a creative mind, I approach storytelling like a puzzle. How can I bring this to life? How can I take a simple idea and give it a voice and a vision? How can I manage, coach and mentor people to think creatively and communicate more effectively? I’ve concentrated on these questions for nearly a decade, as I’ve directed, produced, shot and edited video in a variety of roles. As video director at MOKO Social Media, I developed an entire video department from the ground up. In just a few weeks, I’d built out a studio, coached staff and launched production. In a few months, I created seven video franchises specializing in fitness and politics to be sold and sponsored independently. At Voice of America I co-created and launched ‘People in America’ a new visual series and style of storytelling, diving deep in the lives and emotions of various individuals. From Andy Shallal, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, to Maz Jobrani, these are stories unlike others, almost like a candid sit down, allowing the audience to capture the true story behind names and faces. Leading and managing an amazing team of creatives to create moving and compelling stories! While in charge of managing, shooting and producing all newsroom studio shows at USA TODAY, I built successful video platforms with daily franchises for news, money and entertainment. I have worked with and trained many staff on proper storytelling. I’ve used my storytelling approach to field produce creative video packages at the Boston Marathon, SXSW Interactive, the State of the Union address, both 2012 political conventions and the Presidential Inaugural Ball, the Met Gala, and a number of awards shows, including the Tony’s and the MTV Movie Awards. My passion if Video Storytelling and making people connect with the stories they are watching.
