@ovwurierukeme
Peace studies graduate and experienced cinema technical operator skilled in projection and media production.
What I'm looking for
I am a Bachelor of Peace Studies and Conflict Resolution with practical experience as a cinema technical officer and projectionist. I combine academic training in conflict resolution with hands-on technical work maintaining projection, power, and environmental systems.
At Viva Cinemas and Nile Cinemas I managed projector ingestion and scheduling, maintained UPS/inverter systems, air conditioning, and sound equipment, and coordinated logistics for new film releases. I also designed promotional materials and created video edits and encrypted media for secure playback.
My background includes community outreach with the Nigerian Red Cross where I conducted public sensitisation on measles vaccination and maintained records. I bring strong problem solving, documentation, and customer service skills, alongside self-taught logo design and creative intelligence.
I am motivated, self-directed, and committed to adding value through a blend of technical aptitude, organisational skills, and conflict-resolution training, seeking roles where I can support media operations, technical maintenance, or community-focused programs.
