Recording, mixing, monitor, FOH, playback engineer; producer
SAE Institute of Technology New York
SAE provided a great environment to get my head wrapped around the gear, challenges, and etiquette one needs to be familiar with when walking through the front door of a studio. You take away only as much as you put into this program, which proves true in this industry. Being the first person there and the last to leave goes a long way in their classrooms, as it does on the job. I'm thankful for my time at SAE, it gave me a strong foundation as I cut my teeth in the studio.
