iFIT

I was a Senior Video Editor at iFIT Health and Fitness. I lead a team of 6 video editors through the whole post production process from ingest of footage in various formats, through the video and audio editing process and ending with a completed product that was then programmed and uploaded to the cloud for all iFit users to enjoy on their fitness equipment of choice. I used Adobe Creative Cloud products daily.
In 2022 I supervised the post production team for Everest: A Trek to Basecamp, which was nominated for a Sports Emmy for Outstanding Interactive Experience, Original Programming
