I began my career as a video producer and director, then transitioned to multimedia production and then to online production. I now teach as a tenured full-time Associate Professor and Program Coordinator of the Interactive Media degree program in the Media Arts department in the College of Media and Entertainment at Middle Tennessee State University.

Projects that I have written or produced have won industry awards, have appeared in your local record store (The Artist FKA Prince “Interactive”), at newsstands across France (Hachette-Fillapaci “Explor’us” eCommerce CD-ROM), in your nearby training room, or on some humongous screen near you.

With all that background what does that make me?

• Content Strategist
• Digital Media Creator
• Interaction Designer
• Information Architect
• Translator between Business and Technical people

I have owned small businesses, DoingMedia (online consulting and video), and C4 Workspace (coworking space) for as long as I have worked for “The Man.” The former means freedom to pursue my passions and regularly unscheduled chaos and the latter means stability and an often flattened forehead. Bring on the chaos.

When not working, blogging, or teaching, I enjoy time with my family, travel, riding my bike, singing and “playing” music (a guitar was my “mid-life crisis” purchase), woodworking, and general puttering around the house.
