John Co-Founded Uvideo in 2018 after he saw a need for businesses to have access to an affordable, regular video production solution.

By providing training to businesses on how to shoot their own quality video, Uvideo is able to greatly reduce video production costs. Once the video is recorded, it’s then submitted to the company’s team of talented producers, who return professionally edited videos to clients in under 24 hours. As Co-Founder and Marketing Manager, John helps develop the vision for the company. He is continually innovating new ways to help businesses and brands bring their messages to life through video.
