About

Senior Audio-Visual Technician with extensive experience delivering broadcast-level live, hybrid, and virtual events for global clients. Currently working with Dreamtek/System One at Meta, I manage end-to-end AV production for high-profile meetings and large-scale events across EMEA and APAC, from technical design and system setup to live operation and post-event delivery. I specialise in reliable, high-pressure event environments where audio, video, lighting, and streaming must work flawlessly. My background includes service ownership for executive-level presentations, real-time troubleshooting across physical and virtual systems, and close collaboration with engineers, producers, and international teams to maintain consistent AV standards. Hands-on expertise includes professional audio consoles (Yamaha QL1, QL5), Dante networks,Ross Carbonite and Grass Valley Korona vision mixing, PTZ camera operation, ETC lighting control, and modern broadcast workflows using tools such as vMix, NDI, Zoom Rooms, Companion, Resolume Arena, and Cisco codecs. I’m equally comfortable leading crews, training technicians, and communicating clearly with non-technical stakeholders. With a strong foundation in sound design and live production, plus ongoing certification in broadcast and AV technologies, I bring a calm, solutions-driven approach to every project—whether it’s a corporate broadcast, hybrid conference, or complex multi-room setup.
