I have spent countless hours there, crafting audio elements for everything from short documentaries to feature films.... working alongside lead mixer Paul Ratajczak and re-recording mixer Mark Ettel!

Novamusik opened its doors as we decided to close down Music Central, and I have been a loyal supporter from that day. To ensure their success, I referred over my customer base, and continued to utilize them for equipment sales for of my consulting clients. When I relocated to Milwaukee years later, it was a natural transition to bring me into the Nova family.Upon joining the team, I worked closely with General Manager Eric Olsen and Media Supervisor Brian Ward on ways to stimulate profit growth. We implemented plans to increase sales through converting inventory lines, new product training for the sales staff, and quality, artist driven demo videos.My responsibilites included sales & support, shipping coordination, inventory management, sales team management & training, used equipment acquisition, testing, & pricing, and warehouse support.

Bel Canto Design is an audiophile home theater equipment manufacturer that is headquartered in the warehouse district of Minneapolis. My time with the company consisted of building, testing, & finishing units for both sale and demonstration. The skills needed to accomplish those tasks include running test equipment, soldering tools, fastening tools, crimping & wire tools, air tools, and attention to detail. Quality control quickly became my primary responsibility, and by the time I left the company- I was testing, inspecting & packing over 95% of the units manufactured for sale. During this time, the company observed a shipped product defect rate under 1%.

When it came time to close the doors at Music Central, the current manager at GC (Jerry Grote) recruited me to join his team & turn around the sales of the Roseville Pro Audio Department (Keyboards, DJ, Live Sound, and Pro Audio). It took a lot of work, a lot of change, the gutting of dead weight, and the introduction of new blood..... but in the end- between the efforts of the Pro Audio, Guitar, and Drum departments, we were able to bring Roseville to #1 in the GC chain for the first time ever (even beating out Hollywood!) My responsibilites included sales & support, staff training, interviewing, POP display coordination, sales staff scheduling & management, and B2B commercial sales.

Over the years, tons of great artists recorded with us, including Semisonic, Spymob/N*E*R*D, Mudvayne, Replacements/Paul Westerburg, Dan Wilson, Steve Lilywhite, Eddie Kramer, The Jonas Brothers, and many more!My responsibilities included audio engineering, gear acquisition, studio maintenance, studio booking & scheduling, and general office management.

Music Central was a store that specialized in electronic musical instruments, both new & vintage, and was one of the first (if not the first) online store to specialize in synthesizers! We were one of the early retailers to take on the analog revival lines, including Quasimidi, Novation, Nord, Waldorf, Doepfer, JoMoX, Technosaurus, MOTM, and more (some of which we were the first & only retailer ;) Even though we picked up new lines over time, we started out by acquiring & consigning vintage electronic instruments and studio equipment, and took in some very notable pieces from an Arp 2500 to Yamaha CS-80's to a Polyfusion modular, Emu Modular, and Steiner Parker Modular...... too many cool things to list!My responsibilities included sales, support, inventory management, purchase ordering, shipping, and general store management.
