For nearly a year, I was "embedded" with the archaeologists at Nienow Cultural Consultants as they conducted a Comprehensive Literature Review – basically a full survey of cultural, historical and archaeological features – in a federally-defined geographical buffer area surrounding the Camp Ripley military base in central Minnesota. My job was to document their work which included: discovering long forgotten "ghost towns"; conducting a public archaeology dig; interviewing local historians, etc. I went along for the ride with video camera and microphone recording it all. Check out some of the videos I created during the project.

Freedom's Promise is a podcast I produced, recorded, and edited. The series was created by professor and author Duchess Harris. Duchess wrote and hosted the show with her son, Zach Thomas as a co-host. Freedom's Promise explores African-American topics that are covered in Duchess's book series which is written for third-to-sixth grade readers. In each episode, Zach and Duchess provide an overview, share relevant audio clips, and engage in honest dialogue about the issues and people connected to the featured topic.

In fall 2018, Only a Game, NPR's sports radio show, hired me to travel to Sauk Rapids, Minn. to record reporter Tal Pinchevsky's interview with Austin Howard and his parents.
