01About

From live production to
systems architecture.

Wild Dragon is a specialized broadcast systems integrator and commercial AV contractor based in the Washington, DC area. Founded by Zachary Gaetano, the company bridges production operations and mission-critical engineering.

Because the same engineer designs, installs, and commissions the facility, there is zero translation loss between engineering drawings and real-world rack builds. Every system is built to broadcast-grade reliability standards, documented thoroughly, and handed off with complete operational training.
