In my short role as Associate Technical Director I was tasked with the responsibility of completing a "Festival Season" (Festival of Holidays, Lunar New Year, and Food and Wine) reporting to a Senior Technical Director. During that time, I was also scouted by another department within the resort and was offered a position. I accepted with the caveat that I could complete the season. That offer was accepted but my season was cut short by the pandemic and I moved over to Entertainment Development, Scenic Fabrication during the pandemic.
