My background in
music and electronics, passion for great sound, and diverse experience
in the fields of sound mixing and show production, allow me
to take all types of situations in stride.
I've been professionally involved in the concert and audio/sound reinforcement business since 1973.
I've never had any jobs other than those in this business.
Over the years I've had the privilege of working with some of the biggest and best names in music, making sure their classics and new hits sound as good as possible in all sorts of venues. I have decades of experience in live sound, and love working closely with artists and producers to ensure I give them exactly what they want so they can connect with their audience. That I've been able to do this with such big names means that I'm one of the rare few that really do enjoy their day job.
Here is a sampling of some of the projects I've been involved in, over the thirty-some years that I've been doing this professionally:
