I was obsessed with sound in general since I was little. I don't remember it, but apparently I did a kindergarten project about sound?? Talk about commitment. I do remember the effect headphone listening had/has on me. Walking down the street, then putting on headphones and becoming completely enveloped by sound was a feeling Ill always remember, and try to recreate daily.
Somehow in 1999 I was able to convince my Dad to buy me a MPC2000 and a Yamaha DJX! It was on from there. All I knew is that I wanted to make my version of 'Midnight In A Perfect World' by DJ Shadow, which I saw one Friday night on AMP (anyone remember that show??)
Early on, I spent lots of time experimenting with sound...and how it made me feel. Understanding how certain mics heard the world...how certain speakers reproduced the world and how I can slide in between both to manipulate the source at any point of the signal path. All with the singular purpose of eliciting a certain emotion at a precise moment. At the time, this was most enjoyable through making music...beats, tracks, whatever the cool kids call it today. DJing...controlling a crowd, and being responsible for the collective vibe were also sources for valuable sonic lessons.

My professional audio career started in 2006 when I was hired by the post production team at a large hospital chain in South Florida. Here I learned, developed and honed my Production Audio and Audio Post techniques. We churned out videos, and the repetitive schedule was invaluable, helping me shape the foundation of my processes. Essential lessons were learned working with audio, and working with personalities. If "1000 hours" are necessary so to speak, here between 2006 - 2016 I gained that and then some! As I became more and more ambitious with the final mixes, I wanted to employ more and more sound design. This started my quest for microphones...
The project that had the most impact to both me and the end user was by far the White Noise Channel. This group of channels on Baptist Health South Florida's CCTV network was a resource to patients as a means of relaxation, mediation and well being. Each television channel was themed... Beach, River, Forest at Midnight, etc. I internalized the assignment and went out for weeks capturing source material, all the while falling in love all over again with Miami's impeccable landscape. I found unlikely nooks and crannies to stash my microphones that yielded invaluable experiences that inform my production style to this day. We received many compliments in the form of patients remarking which channel they liked best, or what channels were nurse's 'Go To' when in need of something soothing.
The relentless, fast paced, yet varied nature of the production/post schedule at Baptist Health was the perfect boot camp for what was to come at Fender.
