I have Bachelors and Masters of Science degrees in Mechanical Engineering and also work as a commercial videographer and photographer. In The Fly Fishing Primer, I combined my love for film and photography with my educational and fly fishing background to build an online fly fishing video course that is comprehensive, strategically organized, and visually engaging.
