I'm an editor, director and producer of video through my company, 9 Iron Productions. 9 Iron is a video production company in Orlando, Florida. We make all kinds of video, from streaming web videos to television commercials. It's a great feeling the first time you see a commercial you made on television.

I believe good communication and education will solve ninety percent of the worlds problems, and so I have thrust myself into the advertising industry, having worked at companies like IZEA and MindComet for several year.

If journalism is the rationally, skeptical side of communication then advertising is the emotional, fun loving side, and both need to be presented in order for a consumer to make an educated choice about a product.

I am one of the fortunate people who was able to turn their hobby into a profession, so I have had to develop new hobbies. I'm also the type of person that likes to do everything himself, and to that end I pick up hobbies that I can use personally as well as professionally.

Right now I'm into computers and open source software. A good artist should know their tools so I am specifically interested in software pertaining to video production and marketing. I recently learned HTML and am currently learning PHP, C, C++ and Java.

I'm also SCUBA certified, having gotten a NAUI license when I was thirteen. I love to dive and swim regularly.
