There is no better colleague than Harrison. He is among the most dedicated and thoughtful professionals I’ve worked with in Post Production. He is always willing to go the extra mile — whether helping editors solve tech issues on their machines or finding workflow efficiencies, we knew we could always count on him to propel our team forward. He made numerous contributions to our team, from streamlining how we deliver content for our OTT channel, creating new Airtable bases to organize show deliveries, and helping maximize our sever and frame.io storage. Harrison is a joy to work with, and any organization would be fortunate to have Harrison’s talent, passion, and creativity on their team.

When I worked with Harrison he came during a time when my video production team was in dire need of someone who was a fast-learner, instinctively orderly, and easy to communicate with. Harrison is more. Not only does he possess a talent for smoothly juggling and delivering numerous projects at once, his keen sense for tech and software proved to be monumental in cleaning up our use of our day-to-day systems, ensuring the stability of our projects, not to mention a 24/7 live channel, which he was almost solely responsible for ensuring the timely delivery of our weekly videos. Harrison is ready and able to take any problem thrown his way and figure it out, never hesitant to reach out to anyone in and outside the company if it means benefit to the team, and he is simply a joy to work with. He could only even be a positive force for any team or project as he undoubtedly was for us.
