VIDEO
Utah Jazz:
This Arena
When the naming rights came up for what would become the Vivint Smart Home Arena, I worked with the Utah Jazz and legendary coach Jerry Sloan to create a video that would communicate the history and importance of “Utah’s arena.” The video was presented to every organization in consideration for naming rights, before serving as the official announcement of the arena’s new sponsor.
Tour of Utah:
Enjoy The Ride
I wrote a video for the Larry H. Miller tour of Utah to show fans and potential sponsors worldwide exactly why this stage race is the most unique and exciting summer event in the nation.
Granger Medical Clinic:
Care
A video that walks through one family’s patient journey with Granger Medical Clinic.
Todd Inspires:
Overcoming The Bully
For over 35 years, Todd Sylvester has been helping people of all ages and backgrounds to overcome crippling addictions. I wrote a video that shares one of Todd’s core philosophies; a simple, profound insight anyone can utilize to change their life for the better.
UCCU:
Seriously Fast Mortgages
Here’s why UCCU is the best place to go when buying, building, or refinancing a home.
UCCU:
Super Easy Banking
UCCU:
Raise Your Credit Score

UCCU:
More Online Protections
UCCU’s Elevated Checking comes with tools to help you block threats and protect your family online.
Oh! Optimize | Harmonize

Granger Medical Clinic:
Katie's Story
Northstar Home
A Northstar Home is a Smart Home.
Northstar Home:
Summer Sales
Northstar Home is located within one of the most highly-competitive markets for summer sales recruitment, so we created a video that not only shows why Northstar is a great place to work, but how working for Northstar for one summer can pay off, over and over.
Larry H. Miller:
A Lasting Legacy
In 2017, the Miller family made history when they transferred the ownership of the Utah Jazz to a legacy trust that will ensure the franchise remains in Salt Lake City for generations to come. I worked with Gail Miller (and her family) to create a video announcement worthy of this unprecedented moment in Utah and NBA history.
Mo'Bettahs | Four Foods Group
How Four Foods Group is helping Mo'Bettahs be even more better.
Weigh Safe:
Not just safe. Weigh Safe.
Weigh Safe is the revolutionary trailer hitch that comes equipped with a built-in gauge that measures your trailer’s tongue weight for you - providing you with an accurate measurement every time you couple your trailer.
Four Foods Group:
New Employee Welcome & Training
Four Foods Group (a restaurant development company with over 100 restaurants across the United States) needed a Human Resources video that would effectively communicate such important topics as health insurance, pay schedules, workplace harassment... and we’re bored already. But who said an educational video can't be engaging and entertaining?
Adobe / Microsoft:
Together
Tracker:
Security and Control
In the wake of several high profile data breaches reported in the news, I wrote an animated video for Tracker (by Moki), which provides unique mobile analytics and security that puts businesses back in control of their data.
Mozy:
A Better Place for Your Data
The most trusted provider of cloud data protection and access is now better than ever.
The challenge: how can Mozy communicate the idea and importance of “cloud data protection” in a way that’s engaging, entertaining, and easy to understand?
