Hi! I'm Dave and I love making documentary films and podcasts. Most recently, I was doing just that at CNN's Great Big Story. I've been a Storyhunter user on the company side for years, and now I'm so excited to be able to collaborate with folks on the freelance side and bring their visions to life. I'm able to handle all sides of producing short form news and documentary videos and podcasts: producing, directing, shooting, scripting and editing. My personal areas of interest are in social issues, the environment, music and the arts, and Asian American stories. But, what I really love about this line of work is getting to share stories of all kinds of people. Let's make something together!

I’m a video editor and motion graphic designer and have been in the post production field for over eleven years now. I've developed quite some knowledge about the Adobe Suite, being Premiere, After effects and Photoshop my strongest. I’ve also worked a lot with Final Cut Pro 7 this in both Windows and Mac environments. I’ve studied movie history, script writing, done my share of reviewing films for different websites every now and then and in general have experience in many other video production areas but decided to focus on the post production process because when you edit, is when you finally decide what and how to tell the story your wishing to share with others.

I love telling peoples' and brands' stories. I've been a Creative Director on some of the most well known brands in the world, but lately have shifted my focus to shooting 100% - both video and stills. While working in the "Advertising" world, I often directed and or shot work for my clients and over time, that has become my passion. I have a deep understanding of all the modern platforms, their best practices and what works best to make people pay attention. My focus is taking my ad industry know-how and marrying it to my photojournalistic way of working to bring meaningful and impactful stills and video to today's content starved platforms.
