Summary

I am a creative and detail-oriented professional seeking opportunities to strengthen my skill set and advance my career. I am currently working in television news as a technical director, but I am open to other broadcast or theatrical openings. Working with live production and being part of a team is where I excel. I would love a staff position, but I am willing to work on a freelance basis to start.
