Norfolk,VA

Summary

I started volunteering on the tech team of a church growing up running lyrics when I was 11 and then transitioned into all the different av fields. I did my first national touring act as an handheld crowd cam op when I was 13 and realized that is what i wanted to do for the rest of my life. Since then I have grown up in the AV live event industry and thankfully get to do that as a career! I have now worked on tours, as a house lead tech for festivals and shows, lead tech for corporate work, live album recordings, music videos, sports teams hype videos. I have worked with artists such as Elevation Worship, Tyler Braden, Ashland Craft, Bia. Organizations such as Porsche, Mr Beast, ODU, Hurrah Players, Daktronics, and a plethora of many other artists and Organizations. If you love what you do you never work a day in your life!
