First and foremost, I want to express my profound appreciation for the remarkably talented and dedicated team I had the privilege of working with. In my first semester as director and second semester with Strike, I was tasked with the monumental challenge of completely transforming the structure and vision of what Strike Video represents. With the bar set exceptionally high and the weight of immense pressure on my shoulders, I can confidently say that this team not only met our goal but also redefined standards, reaching unprecedented new heights! To both my team and fellow directors, I couldn’t have asked for anyone better, thank you.
