Hey, I’m Brandon.
I like to make media stuff.
From design to deployment – I help turn ideas into products.
ABOUT ME
I love bringing stories to life.
As a writer and a producer, I have a passion for taking stories and ideas and giving them physical form to inspire wonder and imagination in others.
With over seven years of experience in the news, television, digital media and gaming industry, I am a passionate and versatile producer who can deliver high-quality digital products and content across multiple platforms. My mission is to create engaging and immersive online experiences that connect with audiences and drive growth. I have a strong background in project and product management, video game production, data analysis, and web development; my most recent position was working at Digital Extremes, one of Canada’s leading independent game developers.

My primary responsibility encompassed end-to-end project and product management, from initial research and scoping to the successful launch of both external and internal projects. This involved adept utilization of JIRA task management, ad-hoc project tracking documents, and the facilitation of regular checkpoint meetings with internal teams and external stakeholders to ensure seamless asset delivery.
Beyond production duties, I assumed responsibility for the Web department’s content objectives, which included creating original editorial content, aligning content design with product goals and monetization strategies, driving Web-focused engagement projects, overseeing page revamps, ensuring the publication of external department initiatives on our properties, monitoring traffic for qualitative and quantitative analysis, and identifying and phasing out low-traffic and outdated web paths

Throughout my tenure at CTV News, and sister-station CP24, I held diverse roles spanning show producer, writer, assignment editor, graphics & animations producer, promotions & commercials producer, and field producer for on-location stories. My responsibilities encompassed producing a range of written, audio, and visual content while upholding CTV News’ commitment to delivering high-quality, reliable news.
During my tenure, I played a vital role in national news teams covering significant events such as the COVID-19 pandemic, the passing of Queen Elizabeth, the war in Ukraine, and multiple elections in the US, UK, and Canada. Notably, I served as the supervising producer for CTV News’ Truth Tracker team during the 2019 Canadian Federal Election, earning recognition with an RTDNA ‘Excellence in Innovation’ Award in the Network-Multiplatform category
