Consultant at VR Legal Resources
Greater Los Angeles Area
I've had a varied background which covers many aspects of marketing and advertising.
My experience in commercial photography provided me with the foundation to react to creative and marketing challenges.
Through my career as a private investigator (which I'll admit was quite a detour in my personal life) I performed a variety of services for the private sector and utilized the people skills that I had developed working in the creative field.
Eventually, the combination of a photographic and investigation-related background expanded into the creation of the manufacturing of covert surveillance products for private indiuviduals, industry, and law enforcement (yet another strange detour-I admit it!).
Soon thereafter I recognized the pitfalls of video and audio images captured by surveillance equipment and joined forces with Video Resources, Inc. of Orange County, California (a former vendor during my advertising days) and established an Audio and Video clarification service for the private sector as well as law enforcement.
Our services then expanded into providing Litigation Assistance which utilizes my background in marketing and presentation as well as exploiting the creative talent and services available at Video Resources, Inc.
I've been certified (by the manufacturers) in the proper use and execution of "dTective Video Clarification Tools" as well as "DC LIVE/Forensics Audio Forensics Software ".
I'm also a "CLVS" - Certified Legal Video Specialist, as recognized by the National Court Reporter's Association.
