Additional Information

After a long and productive relationship with Grace Place, it's time for a change.


Our church went entirely online as of March 15, 2020. Since then, I've had sole responsibility for conceptualizing, creating, editing, and streaming the church's online content. I've learned a lot (particularly in the areas of video production and live streaming), but have had limited collaboration opportunities, and am ready to get back to working with people in live settings—collaboratively and administratively.


I'm experienced, highly capable, easy to get along with, and self-motivated. I'd be grateful for an opportunity to use my gifts to their fullest potential, in relationship with similarly-minded people.


Thanks for the consideration!
