Summary
Passionate IT and media specialist with real-world experience supporting worship services and live events in both India and the U.S. I blend technical skill in A/V systems, camera work, and live audio with a calm, problem-solving mindset when things go wrong in the moment. Comfortable running tools like ProPresenter and OBS, I enjoy working behind the scenes so speakers, worship teams, and audiences can stay focused and fully engaged.
