A degree in Film Production from The University of Regina along with stints working with The BBC, Rainmaker, and Command Post-Toybox eventually led him to the world of education in 2002. He’s shot/edited a variety of different films from corporate to documentary to music video to commercial work. Warren has Apple Certification in Final Cut Pro and he also enjoys writing and percussive music, which he studied at St. Francis Xavier University.
