For nearly three years, I’ve worked at Full Moon Creative LLC, an audio-visual production company specializing in city meetings, live streaming, and full-scale event production. I joined the team while still in high school, and it quickly became clear that this was more than just a job—it was the beginning of my career in a field I genuinely love. 

Since working there, I’ve gained deep, hands-on experience in nearly every area of event production. I’ve served as a technical director, utility, operated cameras and video switchers for city government meetings, and supported live events with large screens, full PA systems, lighting rigs, and more. I’ve become a go-to team member trusted with event leadership and equipment management.

In addition to running live events, I’m involved in all the behind-the-scenes logistics—loading and unloading vans, setting up and breaking down gear, and making sure events are executed smoothly from start to finish. I work closely with the company’s leadership and have earned their trust, including receiving strong recommendation letters from my boss.

This role has not only taught me technical skills but also leadership, adaptability, and the importance of working as part of a tight-knit team. Full Moon Creative has been the foundation of my career in production, and I’m excited to keep growing in this field I’m so passionate about.

During my first season working in Arena Video Production with the Miami Heat, I’ve had the opportunity to take on multiple roles in a fast-paced, high-level live production environment. Depending on the game, I work as a spot light operator, a wireless camera utility, or a handheld camera utility, supporting different areas of the broadcast and in-arena show. Each role requires strong communication, awareness, and the ability to adapt quickly in real time. I have had the opportunity to meet so many new people in the industry, work on the court, and learn so much about live event production on a larger scale. 

From assisting with setup and breakdown to being actively involved during live gameplay, I’ve gained hands-on experience working alongside a large production team where timing and precision are critical. This environment has strengthened my technical skills while also pushing me to be reliable, flexible, and detail-oriented under pressure. 

Being recognized as the March Elevate All-Star for the Arena Video department during my first season was incredibly meaningful. It reflects my dedication to learning every role I’m placed in and contributing to the team at a high level. This experience has been an exciting step forward in my career and continues to fuel my passion for live production.
