Getting a start in the entertainment industry with a gig at NTV Uganda where he worked on T-Nation for a few months before finally starting a revolutionary radio show with his best friends called Crazy Town.

He managed to juggle being a radio host, photographer, and videographer, Luckie was also a student at Uganda Christian University in Mukono.

Having to travel from Mukono to Kampala every weekend to pursue his dreams, Luckie managed to grow his portfolio and network which would later come in handy after his graduation. Luckie managed to sustain his passion for the arts alive by taking up gigs. One of the most prominent was the time he spent with Youtuber, Raymond Kahuma. Here, he helped in producing the Guinness World Record – World’s Largest Ugandan Rolex video.
