My career choice didn't start at a fancy university...it started with a song. I first heard the love recording of Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison, and I knew that I was going to fit into the audio visual and production business somewhere. That led to my studying music technology through a very diverse course load (including technology, business, marketing, etc), I landed a job in supplying audio visual needs to businesses in a hotel setting. While there, I learned key aspects of customer service, transparency, and collaboration.I have been a production professional for nearly 10 years.
