About the Author

Me:

24 years ago I started my life in the western suburbs of Milwaukee in a little city called Waukesha. 98% of you probably have never heard of it before. Congratulations to the other 2% who either know their music history. For those of you who don’t know, Waukesha is the hometown of Les Paul, and if you don’t know who that is I would recommend you getting a quick Wikipedia lesson on him.  Aside from Les Paul and Summerfest Milwaukee doesn’t have a strong music history or current scene but I see it building up steam and hopefully Milwaukee will make a name for itself in the years to come.

I lived in the Milwaukee area for most of my life, the exception being college in Arizona. Oh, a quick tip for anyone looking to move to Arizona; Don’t move there in July. Seriously. But enough about you, lets get back to me. In Arizona I graduated first in class from The Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences. After school I moved back to the midwest to Intern at a post production studio in Chicago and then later found myself back in Milwaukee.  I currently am working in internet sales for a local business and live on the North side of Milwaukee with my wife and 1 year old son. I spend my time working, relaxing with my wife and son, playing/recording/following/enjoying/eating/sleeping/breathing music and all things aural.

My Credentials:

So what gives my word more credibility than the next guy. None really because everyone is entitled to their own opinion; Although I fee

l a lot of opinion in out there is based on loose facts and misinformation. I feel that opinion based on knowledgeable facts, although still opinion, may hold a little more truth and balance than ranting misinformed teeny-bopper. – no offense. So when considering the credibility of my work here are a few credentials I have in the music and audio industry:

• Professional trained musician on multiple instruments

• Active band member for years and counting

  

• Graduated Valedictorian from the Conservatory of Recording Arts and Sciences

• Received specialized schooling in recording, mixing, digital audio, analog audio, post production, music business, and live sound

• Oh, and a have my degree and a stack full of certifications to show for it.

• Ran various recording sessions and interned at a studio in Chicago

• Life long lover of all genre’s and all things music

• and people say I have pretty eyes

Now these don’t make better than anyone else. But I hope that you consider them when you consider my opinions because my eyes really are pretty. Thanks for taking your time to meet me.
