  At Encore Entertainment/Ultrax Disk Jockeys I started off by becoming proficient at operating photobooth and lighting systems.

Shortly after receiving team leader of the year I promoted to the role of Director of Production Operations. As Director of Production Operations I managed event logistics, organization, a solid team structure, and I coordinated an effort of purging outdated and unused equipment for Encore that recovered $1,700 in value and opened up over 550 square foot of storage space.
