Bio
Haven Hopkins
Ed's knowledge and teachings about the industry have been instrumental to my growth as a video professional. Ed was the facility manager at Hofstra University when I was attending school, but he was so much more than that. He often stayed lated or came in early to help students with their productions. He offered new and inventive ways to create content, and always encouraged us to think outside the box. Still, 6 years after graduating, Ed is someone alumni reach out to for answers. He is not only our go-to guru of all things tech, but our friend who we trust for career advice. Any place would be lucky to have Ed as a member of their team!

The Auxiliary Service Corporation contracted with CheddarU to bring content to our campus community. With this endeavor came installation of monitors and Apple TV which required a great deal of technical expertise to install properly from start to finish. Edward took the lead in this project and off of my desk. He was instrumental in arranging all meetings and representing Old Westbury in a very professional manner. Edward included me in all emails, F to F meetings, and kept me updated. The project has reached completion quickly and efficiently with Edward as the driver. Thank you and job well done.
