“When I brought Louie to the web team, I had hoped his experience with video editing acquired during his time working in local television would broaden our ability to service our internal customers and make better connections with our social audience. To say he has met that expectation would be a vast understatement. ”
“Louie has done a great job for us working in the NBC Action News Sports department. Louie is someone who is willing to do whatever it takes to get the job done. He is someone we can count on to perform quality work. He is indispensable and I strongly recommend him.”

Jerry Sheridan - The University of Kansas Health System Patient Story
One day, while attending a meeting in eastern Missouri, Sheridan, one of the founders of Sheridan’s Frozen Custard, suddenly became very sick, and had trouble breathing.
Sheridan was taken by ambulance to a local hospital and then transferred to Columbia, Missouri. Doctors determined he had suffered a heart attack due to a blockage in his main coronary artery, which is sometimes ominously referred to as the "widow maker." The heart attack affected his heart so severely that his kidneys, liver, brain and lungs weren't working properly. His body entered cardiogenic shock and he developed advanced heart failure.
Edited in August 2017, this video tells the amazing story of Sheridan's care at The University of Kansas Health System and the Center For Advanced Heart Care's teamwork that saved his life.
K-State Sorority Sisters Joined By A Kidney
In June 2017, I created this video for The Universityof Kansas Health System that tells the story of Bailey Elliott who found out after graduation that she’d been born with a condition that was slowly scarring her kidneys. She was put on a transplant list, but the wait for a donor could be years. Her friend and sorority sister, Emily Ewert, read about the problem on social media, and decided to find out if one of her kidneys would be a match. To her surprise, she was. After a successful transplant at our health system, these two recent K-State graduates share a bond that will tie them together forever…a kidney.
