HIGHLIGHTS
-

From a young age, I discovered my passion for film production and have taken deliberate, impactful steps to turn my dreams into reality. My journey began in third grade with the Folsom Elementary Television Network and the rest has been living out my passion and getting better and better. I founded Brendan Productions, LLC, while still in high school, and since then, I have consistently sought opportunities to grow and refine my craft. My academic journey at Chapman University’s Dodge College of Film and Media Arts, combined with hands-on experience in editing, cinematography, and production, has allowed me to develop a strong foundation in storytelling and technical skills. I take pride in projects like my Junior Thesis film *Dinner* and my award-winning public service announcement for Delaware Valley Community Health, which showcase my ability to create meaningful and compelling content. These experiences, along with being recognized as a Film Festival Nominee, have reinforced my commitment to pursuing a career in film and media.

​

I have also gained valuable professional experience that highlights my leadership and innovative mindset. At NBCUniversal, I collaborated on initiatives that significantly increased viewership and donations for the Jason Kelce Beach Bash, while also presenting strategic insights to senior leadership. I have worked at Day1 Sports & Entertainment, where I developed marketing campaigns to elevate emerging athletes’ brands. As the founder of Brendan Productions, LLC, I have successfully managed over 100 projects, demonstrating my entrepreneurial spirit and expertise in editing, drone cinematography, and client management. I am proficient with industry-standard tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and AVID Media Composer, and I thrive in collaborative environments where I can bring creative visions to life. My resume reflects my unwavering dedication to my profession and my determination to make a lasting impact in the film and media industry.
