current impact at apple
apple information security learning team
I lead the production and instructional strategy for global security training, including building an in-house video studio that meets WWDC standards. I use AI throughout my workflow to solve complex problems, such as processing data to create targeted learner personas and building custom macOS automations for Slack training reminders. Recently, while designing our Social Engineering course, I used AI to modify stock images so they featured Apple devices. This helped keep our visuals authentic and on-brand.
project spotlight
brand guidelines redesign
I transformed our team's brand guidelines from a single, hard-to-use document into a clear, multipage design system. As the project and design lead, I set up the information structure and created reusable templates. I used AI as a key tool to build the framework and write most of the core content, including typography, video production, and layout standards. This update removed guesswork and made sure all learning materials matched the global Apple brand.
work samples
capturing content
My production experience spans the spectrum: from controlled, high-stakes studio environments to rugged, remote field locations. Whether directing C-suite talent or capturing industrial b-roll, I maintain high production standards and visual consistency, operating solo or leading a crew depending on the project scope.
short-form documentaries
I specialize in unscripted storytelling that translates corporate initiatives into human experiences. My approach involves deep pre-production research and an interview style that puts subjects at ease, extracting authentic sound bites from engineers, executives, and customers to drive the narrative forward.
animation
Using After Effects, Illustrator, and Figma, I transform dense technical concepts into clear, digestible visual explanations. I collaborate directly with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) and UI/UX teams to create accurate infographic animations, micro-animations, and other animated assets that adhere to brand guidelines and user capabilities.
technical animation
Working with subject matter experts to create technical animations that demonstrate and explain complex processes in an easily digestible way.
motion graphics and vfx
I use a combination of Adobe Creative Suite and Generative AI to enhance video quality and create reusable assets. This includes building motion templates (MOGRTs) for teams, upscaling low-resolution footage, and removing unwanted elements to save shots in post-production.
project spotlight
permian problem solvers series
I led the production of a series highlighting technological innovation in the Permian Basin. I owned the project from concept to delivery, managing complex logistics, multi-cam cinematography, and audio engineering in the field. Post-production included full editing, color grading, and custom motion graphics.
