Summary

I have a variety of professional and amateur experience with recorded and live sound, as well as events and artist management. Much of my live sound work has been amateur, but I have found many skills to carry over from my previous employment within a recording studio. One major one has been communication, and understanding my own abilities and limitations in order to work with a team.
