What began as a single experience grew into years of networking, hands-on learning, and exploration within the industry as a multi-passionate business owner. In 2025, Broc became the Owner and CEO of Le Luci Lighting and Design, where he now leads a team in pushing creative boundaries and elevating the way lighting and design transform wedding experiences.
