Pam Nilsen, Videographer, Beaufort, SC

My work: At "The Memory Tree Video," we take oral histories of people to turn their memories into heirlooms.

My passion: Travelling and being with my family.

My favorite possession: My wedding ring set that belonged to my great aunt, and of course, all my photos and videos.

I’m thinking about: Applying production techniques I learned in NYC to a travel and nature video.

Words I live by: Try to be humble and kind, and help whenever you can without fanfare.

I am most proud of: The relationship my husband and I have with our children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

One thing I never want to do again: Wait tables (I was horrible at it) and ride in a hot air balloon.

I am guilty of: Trying to cram too much into too little time.

Right now I’m reading:Videographer Magazine.

If I could do it all over again: I would!

The food I could eat every day: Tortellini with cajun shrimp in Alfredo sauce.

If I were a superheroine, I would be: "The Tranquilizer" and eliminate stress for everyone.

I still can’t get the hang of: Backing up a trailer.

I’d like to learn to: Act and write – I’m getting a chance with The Arts Council of Beaufort County class offerings!

My first job: Being in charge of pony rides at different fairs - my pay was horseback riding at the end of the day after the ponies were fed and brushed.

Always... Make the moment special.

Never...Be cruel or funny at someone else’s expense.

I wish…Aside from world peace, that I could spend more time on the water with family.
