My name is Doug Cox, and I am a content creator. I have been directing and editing TV, Digital and Social content for over 20 years. Most recently, as the founder and CCO of The Cabinet, a one-stop shop for production, post and finish for over 8 years. After the retirement of my long time friend and business partner, I have decided to enter the freelance pool and/or seek a position where my skill sets can help! This site is a place where you can see my work and some press.
