MC
To MC is to lead an audience through a journey curated by a collaborator or company… my job as MC is to take whatever is envisioned and offer that to the audience. Naturally, my skills as a writer and actor do help by way of generating content and performance, but I would say it is a persona I invest in as a job of its own.
