and two weeks later, they didn’t know what to do with her.

Lukas Seno didn’t start in a warehouse.
He didn’t start on a soundstage.
He started on the North Shore of O’ahu.

Before becoming Business Agent of IATSE Local 665… before lighting major TV shows in Hawaiʻi… Luke was just a Kahuku kid watching photographers in the lineup, realizing he might not be the pro surfer — but he could capture the moment.

How craft turns into career.
And how 30 years later, you’re leading the workforce you grew up in.
