The Video Slab first opened its doors in North Carolina in 2015 and recently moved its base of operations to Iowa City in 2024. I wear a lot of hats…

TECH SOLUTIONS AND SUPPORT
I have been offering freelance support services for clients since 2015. I love to support independently owned companies and folks working on passion projects alike. Some of the things I do for them are:

• social media (video and photos) creation and posting
• explainer videos
• teaching folks how to use software for editing
• resolving tech snares and file architecture challenges
• website creation and updates
• consulting on branding
• content writing
• project based management
• database clean up and creation

CONSERVATION MULTI MEDIA CREATION
I have worked extensively as an investigative story finder and story teller in the world of forest and animal conservation. As an award winning film maker, director and editor I have made 4 feature length films between 2017-2023 and over a hundred short form videos and produced 2 separate podcasts arcs. Currently I am directing the Iowa Prairie Documentary Project, which is being released as a podcast, video and film.

PROCESS
My specialty is in taking an information dense story and making it relatable to the audience, especially in the realm of conservation stories; because all conservation stories are wrapped tight with information. The challenge is in how to unwind the facts and present them in a way that an audience enjoys, is moved by and takes action because of.
