19 Film and Media (2015–Present)
Worked with a tight-knit creative team to produce commercials, branded content, and short films from concept to delivery. Gained hands-on experience in multiple aspects of production, including camera operation, editing, sound design, and client collaboration. This role strengthened my adaptability, problem-solving skills, and ability to bring stories to life on limited budgets while maintaining professional quality.

Department Director & Instructor – Film Technology (2019–2025)
At Southern Crescent Technical College, I led the Film Technology program — advising over 100 students, supervising faculty, and producing educational content that made film production approachable and fun.

EXPERIENCE

Executive Director – NuBees (2017–2020)
Yes, bees! I co-founded a company that engineered and patented a new style of beehive. Beyond design, I produced the marketing videos and brand content that introduced our invention to the world.

Instructor – Film Production (2014–2017)
At Central New Mexico Community College, I built new classes and degree tracks in editing, sound, directing, and fabrication. I also started a student film club and film gala, creating a community for young filmmakers to share their work.

Manager of New Media – Fyzical Therapy & Balance (2017–2018)
Here I focused on health and wellness media — creating educational and promotional videos that explained specialized services in a clear and engaging way.

Big-Screen & Broadcast Projects
I’ve had the chance to work on major productions like Transformers, Book of Eli, and Expedition Unknown on the Travel Channel. These experiences gave me a front-row seat to large-scale production environments and the teamwork it takes to make them happen.
