"I have a very strong work ethic, and I love what I do. Whether it is hanging a Source Four, choosing Gels, or programming ML's, there is a sense of joy and accomplishment that can only be found in being a part of theatre. Every day, you get to work, solve problems, grow, and learn, all while creating a beautiful piece of art. All of this inspires me to work to my fullest and treat every day as if it were show day. " |
