One was developing and hosting a weekly show on 89.1 WYBF-FM, a Philadelphia area radio station. The Alternative Comedy Hour combined alternative rock with classic comedy recordings and originally produced content. Another was going undercover on a series of investigative reporting projects in Philadelphia with the team at WCAU-TV 10 (NBC) and Herb Denenberg, a leading consumer advocate and TV personality. However, David's first professional role in television began as a teen, performing for three seasons on Nickelodeon's classic sitcom The Adventures of Pete & Pete, which grew a worldwide audience. Behind the camera in Los Angeles, David gained vital knowledge on the producing teams of the unscripted series Celebrity Fit Club (VH1) and 99 Most Bizarre (TLC).

Award-winning writer, director and producer in film, TV and journalism for 10 years. My recent directing work includes industry-recognized car ads for Hyundai, viral spots for brands like Amazon & Adidas, and social impact documentaries for Clorox. Before becoming an independent filmmaker I was a Senior Creative Producer at BuzzFeed Branded Video for 3 years. I juggled several projects at a time and in all different stages of the production process - one in post overseeing the edit, on set directing, doing a final copy edit on a script, and sending in a fresh pitch deck. Previously I was a network producer at Discovery Science Channel where I worked on shows like "The Unexplained Files," "Alien Encounters" and "Prophets of Science Fiction with Ridley Scott." I also created the video content and live produced panels for thousands of excited fans at Comic Con in NY & SD. I know the ins and outs of pitching to networks, developing shows and executing them on accelerated and full timelines. Before that I was at CNN Special Investigations and Documentaries, where I still have strong relationships from working on specials like "Unwelcome: The Muslims Next Door," "Battle for Blair Mountain," and "Latino in America." As an accomplished producer I received a Peabody for coverage of the Gulf Oil Spill Disaster as part of the "New Orleans Rising" documentary with Soledad O'Brien, Visionary Award at Summit Emerging Media Awards for the "Young Entrepreneurs" series for Hyundai, and spots on the Youtube Ad Leaderboard. While I am a creative who envisions a project coming to life as soon as I read the words on the page, I'm also a producer who knows how to deliver assets that meet client's criteria on time, and under budget. I can one-man-band it shooting 4k, editing in Premiere and creating graphics in Photoshop, run-and-gun with a camera op and sound guy on a doc shoot, or direct a commercial spot with a crew of 70. No matter what the project is, I will give it my all because I'm passionate about creating art. Lets make something awesome together!

Hi, I am a creative and adventure videographer/photographer based out of Newport Beach, CA. I am looking to tell the stories of the unique people and places that this world has to offer. My passion for videography and photography started back during my senior year of college when I was attending Chico State. Throughout my time there I was really unsure about what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I kept jumping back and fourth between wanting to start all sorts of different things. First, it was wanting to design cars. Next, it was wanting to design snowboards. Then, I wanted to start a clothing brand and design t-shirts. But there was something that all of these things had in common...I wanted to create. It wasn't until I picked up my first camera, a GoPro, that I knew this is what I wanted to create for life. I found my passion for videography and photography after four years of college and 100 credits later. Would have been nice to find it my freshmen year when I could have changed my major...but hey, what are you going to do? I started taking my camera every where with me. Anytime that my friends and I went hiking, cliff-jumping, camping, snowboarding, wakeboarding, dirtbiking, rollblading, and dirtbiking. You name it and my GoPro was by my side capturing all of my most memorable moments in life. Since then, my passion grew more and more for videography and photography that it became apart of my everyday life. It is so much more to me than just creating beautiful images and videos. It is an outlet for me to display my emotions and create the art that is important to me. It has helped me with every aspect of my life and turned me into the person I am today.
