Background

About Gabriel Aref

As a Media Production Student at Virginia Commonwealth University, I am passionate about pursuing a career in the sports media industry. I am currently the Sports Director at WVCW Radio, where I oversee the broadcast and operations of various sports events and shows. I have gained valuable experience and skills as a Camera Operator for Richmond Flying Squirrels and VCU Athletics, where I have worked on live video productions for baseball and soccer games. I have also completed an internship at WTVR-CBS 6, where I learned how to write, shoot, and edit news packages for on-air and online platforms. I am proficient in HD Camera Operation, Adobe Premiere Pro, and Live Graphics, and I am eager to learn more and grow as a professional. My goal is to work as a Camera Operator or Technical Director for a major-market sports team or TV network.
