Three decades behind the lens.

My career began at Esquire Deposition Services in November 1995, where I was trained to handle complex deposition video work and went on to co-lead a regional production division. Beyond typical video depositions, I've been trusted to cover multi-camera setups — capturing the witness alongside both questioning and defending attorneys — while integrating live trial technology and document cameras into a comprehensive final product.

Over 30+ years I've had the privilege of working with high-profile witnesses in government and Hollywood, handling both remote and in-person projects across the DC metro area, New York, California, and internationally. Today I pair that operator-level experience with software development — building the tools the industry actually needs.
