Principal Studio Operator & Master Control Operator

Staff Position — Stanford University Details
9/05 – 11/17

Multitasking and working in a fast-paced environment has become natural to me after managing two roles at the Stanford Center for Professional Development (SCPD) for Stanford University's School of Engineering (SOE). I recorded live studio productions by simultaneously operating remote cameras, studio lights, soundboard, and video switcher that added high production value. I also monitored live video signals from offsite recordings to ensure professional level quality. My biggest achievement was training junior operators to capture dozens of courses a day through personalized supervision that allowed the seamless delivery of hundreds of hours of content a quarter.
