I’m Eddie J, a Chicago-based video producer and live event host with a background in video production, audio, and storytelling. I’ve spent years producing and hosting content across real estate, sports, corporate, and commercial projects—managing teams, editing, directing, and sometimes jumping in front of the camera myself. Whether it’s a polished video, a great piece of audio, or a live event with a microphone in my hand, I love bringing energy, personality, and a good story to the audience.

I’m a proud Chicagoland native, born and raised between Melrose Park and Geneva, Illinois. I’m a Fenwick High School alum and graduate of Northern Illinois University, and my Chicago-area loyalties run deep: I root for the White Sox, the Bears, and, of course, my NIU Huskies.

When I’m not behind a camera or a microphone, you might find me on a pickleball court, at a bowling alley, hosting or playing trivia, digging into Chicago and local history, or getting completely absorbed in a good documentary.

At home, I share the place with three roommates—one canine and two felines. Karl, my dog, is often my partner in exploring Chicago, although I’m pretty sure he considers himself the one in charge.

At the end of the day, I’m curious by nature, I love learning new things, and I’ve always believed that whether you’re telling a story on camera, behind a microphone, or to a room full of people, the best way to connect is to keep it genuine.
