He joined the group in 2000 as a Senior Producer and the Broadcast Facilities Manager for the brand-new state-of-the-art studio facility the firm had built in the World Trade Center. After the 9/11 terrorist attacks he assisted in the transition to new facilities, taking a lead role in designing the firm's broadcast studio in Westchester, NY. During the transitional two years he continued to produce live and taped broadcasts, and worked with a team of producers as a manager of operations for all projects.
