Bio
Jeff P.
Brian is a passionate, dedicated and enthusiastic manager. He grew from managing a show's content in our station to managing the full team and staff on his shift. He did it with ease. The staff trusted and believed in him. They responded to his passion by raising the bar for quality content. Brian also stayed in the forefront of technology and how it could help news gathering and connecting to viewers/users. I would hire Brian again without hesitation for a news management position if given the chance.
