      Activities and Societies: I participated in several video production competitions while attending Video Symphony. The school would pick random topics and challenge the students to produce a 30-60 second video about it. I won 2 out of 3 entries. Studied Final Cut Pro, Photoshop, After Effects as well as many other aspects of content creation. I gained a fuller understanding of the video side of production and it's helped me grown my business tremendously.
