Bio
Gordon grew up in Texas, and moved to Massachusetts just before his 21st birthday. He went to Boston University’s Center for Digital Imaging Arts, and earned a certificate in Digital Film Making. He specializes in post-production, editing POV Reviews for WheelsTV, but loves going out on a shoot every now and again, if only to remind himself how peaceful editing is. He is largely a geek at heart, and loves technology. He has the unusual hobby of computer programing, and even feels comfortable in a few different languages.
