Campus Champion

“I do my best work when I’m under pressure," says Ricardo Nelson ’12, SUNY Cortland’s go-to guy for all things video. Since April, the media services technician has produced too many videos to mention, each dedicated to engaging the campus community during distance learning and quarantine restrictions. Some projects keep him up all night, one was a social media hit. He works with all corners of campus, from athletics to fundraising to academics and helps people — some with wild ideas — meet their online objectives. Then he rallies his students taking introduction to media production and teaches them things like how to get the audience more involved and how to strive for the best.
