Summary

I am a highly energetic, enthusiastic, friendly, and coachable team worker, and my current professional goal is to join a touring production company or audiovisual production company. I am willing to work in a variety of production departments, and as a job requires, but I am passionate in working with video. My previous work reflects my passion for team building, building rapport with customers, and maintaining industry standards for safety and service. I am looking for a career change to continue working in event production, including stagecraft and expanding my work in multiple departments. I have participated in other operations of venues, including show calls, technical operations during shows, and change-overs. I am willing to travel, or relocate, as needed. I pay attention to scheduling and always try to arrive early and communicate actively with my team. I am a dedicated and motivated person and strive to be available to complete tasks in any department, as needed.
