About Conner

The process of creation has been engrained in me the entirety of my life. The first camera I picked up was my dad’s Pentax in the DSLR days. I followed in his footsteps with my first Nikon point and shoot, going with him to events and bringing my camera on every family trip we went on.

Right now I’m a junior studying Advertising at the University of Illinois. I work for the University’s Athletics Creative department as a video intern. Part of my job is to capture everything from men’s tennis and women’s golf on the ground, to recording football games and aerials of the facilities with a drone in the sky. The other part of my job is communicating with staff, coaches, athletes to get content planned, edited, and ready for posting.
