Demo Reel

The packages included are a look at Toledo's lack of enforcing heat-related ordinances in winter, a large initiative to help the unhoused, a feature on Ohio's first registered Latino credit union, a major investment at Toledo's Jeep plant, and customers receiving a refund after I contacted an unresponsive contractor.
