My name is Jonathan Jared Saupe and my passion is video storytelling. It’s been a huge part of my life, even well before getting my first TV news internship nearly 25 years ago.
I’m the guy who is going to be up for new challenges and is always available when the big story breaks.
I’m constantly in search of the next adventure and creative project.
I love exploring new areas and educating myself on as many places with the help of as many people as I can meet.
I hope you have a chance to check out my online resume.
