I push faders, build audio systems, and the occasional recording studio for a living.
I was an Audio Technician for Disney for ten years.
I'm currently in charge of gear for a large production company in Orlando.
I have a vested interest in Rocket City Recording Studio in Cocoa, Florida.
I'm also a moderator at Recording.org
Samples of my studio work can be found here: .Soundclick

Oh, almost forgot.
I play Guitar, Bass, Drums, and a little bit o' keys.
My favorite guitar is my $180 Ibanez, because it plays great and my wife bought it for me.
My favorite mic is a 57, because it's versatile - it doubles as a hammer.
My favorite amp is a small one, because the best albums in the world were recorded with little amps through a good mic - 4x12 cabs are for the stage!!!
My favorite beer is Heineken (and Guinness).
My favorite motorcycle is a Honda CBR 750.
My favorite song is Ballad Of Dwight Fry, by Alice Cooper.
My favorite album is Obscured By Clouds, By Pink Floyd.
