What I'm trying to say with all this is that I'm an Audio/Video/Graphics nut trying to carve out a realm for myself in this crazy world. In short, I'm an amateur musician, a music producer/engineer, a video and film maker and editor, a graphical designer and artist, a story writer, and a big gaming and movie nerd. I've earned my bachelors and associates qualifications in the film and audio arts, and am intent to one day make this world better with these skills.
Most recently I’ve reinvested my time and skills into learning AutoCAD and Revit, and am trying to start a career with that as a Design Associate at Crux Solutions. Crux is small, but plays with the big dogs, designing security and technology solutions for architectural projects. Architectural design has so many more facets too it than I could have ever fathomed, and a given project is often split up into different disciplines handled several different firms. Some know what to do with concrete rebar, some know what to do with a toilet and ducting, we know what to do with technology and security. There is a tremendous opportunity to learn from esteemed professionals that have been doing this for decades, and to pick bread crumbs here and there helping to implement their vision. And more and more over time, I’ll get to lend my hand to the actual design process of filling these plans with the solutions that will keep others moving forward.
Before that, past a whole dark age and a few end of days, I was the Quality Control Coordinator for the Projection QC department at Freeman Audio/Visual. What does that mean? Freeman A/V is an event technology rental and staging company. If you’ve ever watched E3 and wondered where the huge displays and all the staging and rigging came from that set the stage for huge event, it came from somewhere like Freeman. That gear and equipment gets used much more than that one time though, and once it’s done at that event, we had to make sure that it was good shape to go out and make another event flashy and spectacular.
I'm a nerd, and I own that term. If I'm not engrossed in any number of audio/film/multimedia projects, I could be in the middle of a Sci-Fi film marathon, performing poorly on some game over Xbox Live, or possibly prepping for a D&D session.
I have spent the better and worse half of the past 15 years dedicating myself to music, film, and everything nerdy... and intend to keep doing so for as long as I can breathe. Thanks for following along and showing your interest!
