Clair Global / SoundImage

As a technician with Sound Image and Clair Global, I supported high-profile live productions and installations for corporate, entertainment, and institutional clients, operating within fast-paced, high-pressure environments where precision, professionalism, and safety were critical. My work spanned both hands-on technical execution and logistical support, contributing to projects from initial load-in through live operation and strike.

My responsibilities included setting up, operating, and striking complex lighting systems—such as truss structures, 8’–15’ Leko trees, festoon and bistro lighting, and architectural uplighting—alongside supporting stage construction of varying scales and configurations. I also assisted with large-scale LED video wall builds and permanent A/V installations, including the integration of a multi-million-dollar Christie LED display for Stanford University.

In addition to field work, I served as an L/V shop technician, managing inventory, prepping and repairing fixtures, and ensuring equipment readiness for deployment. This role also involved coordinating logistics, operating 16’ and 26’ trucks for regional and long-haul deliveries, and supporting smooth handoffs between shop and show-site operations.

Trained and mentored by experienced industry professionals, I developed a strong understanding of professional production workflows and the importance of clear communication across departments. Across work with clients including Festival Napa Valley, Stanford University, Filoli World-Class Gardens, Twin Peaks Stage, Metallica, the Grateful Dead, and the San Francisco Giants, I upheld Clair Global’s reputation for delivering high-quality results while adapting quickly to new environments and production demands.
