 It's a Living

Field Producer / Story Producer / Director of Photography
​
One of my all-time greatest jobs was field-directing and producing 4 seasons of the CBC’s primetime It’s A Living show. With hilarious host Peter Jordan, I explored North America to learn inspiring, bizarre, and often life-threatening jobs: spelunking for new bugs, abandoned at sea to test search & rescue ops, rappelling into remote forest fires...  I seriously miss this show.
