Welch Allyn

Taking “Ground Rounds” is an experience shared by all young doctors. Welch Allyn, makers of medical equipment, wanted to use humor to connect with an audience of young medical professionals about to start their own practice. In the animated web link, Dr. Dysthemia torments the young MDs with a series of medical questions, to which I wrote responses.

The Syracuse, New York Public Broadcasting affiliate produced “Syracuse Police Department – Reckoning and Reform.” This six-part series explores the history and challenges of the SPD as a new police chief attempts to reform the department. I was the story consultant for this award-winning documentary.

I produced and co-wrote a documentary on Affirmative Action which was aired in the Northeast.

I’ve taught both graduate and undergraduate students at Ithaca College and Syracuse University. I’ve created courses, and have led seminars and workshops, including the filming of a professional production of a full-length play.

As creator and producer of a TV pilot, I needed a visual placard to send digitally to potential buyers which would grab their attention and showcase the essence of the characters and stories we were to tell.
