@anthonybell1
AV Engineer focused on tier 1/2 troubleshooting and live event AV support.
What I'm looking for
I’m an AV Engineer delivering tier 1 and tier 2 support, troubleshooting customer AV issues, and serving as an escalation point via phone/remote or onsite support. I handle daily AV maintenance, system installation, functionality audits, and direct client system-usage support, including live event support.
Before this, I worked as a Video Editor and an Audio Visual Technician II at General Dynamics, owning the full video workflow and supporting conference room and large-scale events. I managed edits from intake through formatting, compression, clipping, audio levels, exposure/color balancing, watermarking, lower thirds, transcoding, and coordination with 3rd-party closed captioning.
I bring strong technical and customer-focused skills, including Windows and Adobe Suite proficiency, plus AV technology expertise with systems like WebEx/Polycom, Crestron DigitalMedia 4K, and Biamp TesiraFORTE. I’m certified in Information Assurance and Cybersecurity technology, and I’m motivated to keep improving AV services through planning, operations, maintenance, and workflow enhancements.
