ABOUT

A TRUE STORY.

Looking back, it was my first job in high school that set the course for my career as a storyteller.   As a 15 year old  kid, I worked at the NFL Alumni’s retail pro shop in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.  It was the coolest job for a sports-loving teenager growing up in South Florida, carrying the apparel of every  NFL team.  Of course,  the hometown Miami Dolphins were the best-seller and everyday their NFL Films team highlights played on a loop on the in-store television.  Turns out, that daily does of Steve Sabol and John Facenda made a deep impression on me.   I remember saying, "One day it would be awesome to cut a Dolphins highlight." That thought stuck and inspired me to pursue my love of football and storytelling.   Years later, after a lot of prayer and hard work, my NFL Films dream became a reality as I was hired to produce those treasured Dolphins highlights and tell countless amazing stories.

During my 17 seasons at NFL Films, I spearheaded the creation of acclaimed documentaries for major networks such as HBO, CBS, and Amazon Prime, earning prestigious industry accolades and recognition. My love for client service and collaboration played a strong role in my execution and amplification of NFL sponsorship initiatives, enhancing brand visibility for top-tier companies like Gatorade, Verizon, and Bose.

Prior to my role at NFL Films, I played a key role in the successful launch of ESPNU, Disney's first 24/7 college sports network, overseeing channel programming and pioneering innovative broadcast techniques, like simulcasting the first-ever Sky-Cam broadcast of a college football game.

Before that, I was a Producer at ESPN in Bristol, Connecticut where I produced several Emmy-winning documentaries and helped secure television rights to prestigious events like The Masters.  With a Bachelor's degree in Telecommunications from Oral Roberts University, and seven Sports Emmy Awards, I bring a unique blend of creativity, strategic insight, and exceptional leadership to every project I undertake.  With over three decades of expertise in sports media production, marketing, and branded content, I decided to start my own production company, Anchor Light Films, LLC. 

Today, I strive to help clients bring their stories to life.
