I have worked in studio and live sound since late childhood. I ran my first console at 17 while at Minnesota Center for Arts Education. I moved to Nashville in 2001 and started working in studios. At Quad Studios I interned for 2.5 years. I moved to the other side of the glass as a musician following that. I started working as a technician in 2005 and ended up at Clair for almost three years. I built live audio rigs. When I went freelance, I began working with others who were wiring studios. Since then I have stuck with the more technical side of audio, focusing mainly on design and installation. For some reason I think wiring a 100 pin connector is fun! I had avoided touring in the past, because I was focusing on my bands. This is no longer true, I would be happy to tour now! I have continued tradeshow work since 2000. I began as a vendor who had to build their own booth. I sold Indonesian imports at the Tucson Gem and Mineral show from 2001-2006. From there I moved to freight, then to I&D. I guess I like to build things...... I have added lighting to my repertoire, working with PGP and honing those skills! I began with conventionals at TPAC in 2010 - 2015 and arm learning more each day.
