Audio Video Production
This course is designed to provide students who are focused on audio, video & film production an opportunity to learn and refine their technical and conceptual skills through the creation of advanced level video/film projects. It is primarily a hands-on course, concentrating on the production, critical discussion and execution of short format videos in documentary, narrative and experimental forms. The courses will emphasize producing, directing, and editing skills, with the effective use of camera work and sound design. In addition to developing advanced knowledge and skills needed for success in the Arts, Audio/Video Technology and communication career cluster, students will be expected to develop an advance understanding of the filmmaking industry with a focus on pre-production, production and post-production activities.

I graduated from the University of Hawaii with a B.A. in Communications.
Before my life as an educator, I worked at the ABC and Fox stations as a news photographer and the Chief Photographer for the NBC station in Hawaii. After moving to the DFW area I freelanced for Fox 4 News and the Dallas Cowboys.
My first teaching job was at Timber Creek High School as the A/V teacher, where we started TCTV (Timber Creek Television).
I have three children who attended Keller ISD schools, one at Central and two at Timber Creek. I am the supervising instructor for the video board at the KISD stadium.

With a fervent passion for bringing memories and designs to life, I am thrilled to be teaching commercial photography and graphic design this year, as well as helping to run the KCAL printshop. I have a deep love for learning and staying up-to-date with the latest technology. Over the past 15 years, I have built and grown my own photography business, continually evolving and expanding my skills. My teaching journey spans 18 years, with a unique start as a nuclear chemist before transitioning into education. Recently, I completed my Master's in Instructional Design and Technology. As a creator at heart, I am excited to make this class an unforgettable experience!
