Professional Audio, Video & Live Streaming Solutions

What I Offer
🎙️ Sound System Operation
Professional audio operation and technical direction for your event. I prefer to work as the operator/technical director with my own equipment for smaller events, or partner with established rental companies for larger productions where full-scale equipment is needed.
Current Experience
Maryland International Raceway – Operating sound systems for events at a 12,000-capacity venue since May 2024. Responsibilities include live announcing, audio mixing, and crowd management communications.
Note: For events requiring extensive sound reinforcement beyond my personal equipment capabilities, I can coordinate with regional rental companies while serving as your technical director and operator.
🎥 Video Production & Live Streaming
Multi-camera video production and professional live streaming – available for both on-site and remote operation. I specialize in creating engaging content that extends your event’s reach beyond the physical venue.
Remote Production Capability
True Talks Live! with PMI Southern Maryland – Producer/Director operating remotely from December 2022 to March 2024. Live switching, audio mixing, recording, and encoding using VMix platform, demonstrating that professional production doesn’t always require on-site presence.
Broadcasting Background
Fox News Media – 19+ years operating production systems for live national broadcasts reaching 2M+ viewers. Trained in graphics, switching, and live event execution under pressure.
Volunteer Leadership
Jesus the Divine Word Church – Director of Technology since 2017. Created multi-camera live streaming program during pandemic. Largest outdoor production: outdoor mass services. Experienced in training volunteer teams and managing special event production.
📊 Project Management Approach
As a PMP-certified project manager, every event is planned with attention to timelines, budgets, and risk management. Clear communication and reliable execution guaranteed. My strength is in the planning, coordination, and technical operation – not in providing full equipment packages.
