With over 28 years of Broadcast Engineering experience, my specialty is in the remote production environment, having worked on various remote production trucks, Sr. Engineer of a satellite/production truck, and working as a Design Engineer for a specialty vehicle manufacturer.  

I currently work as the Senior Broadcast Systems Engineer at ION Media Networks' Technical Operations Center in Clearwater, Florida and also own my own business as a Contract Engineer designing, installing and maintaining broadcast vehicles and facilities.

Evenings and weekends I freelance with various production and news trucks throughout the state of Florida, and do sound and staging for local bands and concerts.  If you are in need of a video or tape operator, A2, grip, EIC or E2, please drop me a note and we can arrange the booking.  I also hold a Class B CDL and can be hired as a relief or transport driver for straight trucks up to 70k.

I am available on fairly short notice in the Tampa Bay/West Central Florida area.  Other areas statewide or out of state I would need more notice for a booking.  You can check my freelance availability on my public Google Calendar "PTG Freelance".
