ON A PERSONAL NOTE: Graham loves history documentaries, discussing current world affairs, motorcycles, and most of all spending time with his family. On the job, he is committed to making the world a better place by being honest, hardworking, and earning a reputation as always willing to go the extra mile to make sure the job is done right the first time. We think this commitment and attitude (not to mention experience!) makes him an outstanding technical director.
