      Associate's degree Cinematography and Film/Video Production

      In college, I dove headfirst into the filmmaking process, learning the nuts and bolts of taking a project from an idea to the screen. My education covered it all: the planning and problem-solving of pre-production, the on-the-ground challenges of shooting, and the detailed work of editing and finishing in post-production. This hands-on experience gave me a solid foundation in the practicalities of making a film, equipping me with the skills to handle every aspect of production.
