My work in the digital media and web development sector has given me a fresh perspective on the power of content to connect with audiences and create meaningful change. As a multifaceted individual, I take pride in excelling in various pursuits.

AV professional experienced in system design, installation, control programming, troubleshooting, RMA processes. Currently working as AV designer for Plan Group with prior experience with Extron (OEM), VMWare (end user). At work, I am all ears for all AV talks. Videowalls are my favorite part of AV and signal processing and distribution is my bread and butter. Projection systems are still a 'Why this' for me and docking stations make things interesting. Audio processors are a 'How' for me and video processors are a 'Wow'. UCC is a path less taken and controllers are the boxes that brought me to AV. Live events are the greener grass on the other side. Off work, I'm a beer with pizza kinda person with occasional buffet ventures. Fond of driving in mountainous terrain and roam around in the city on my motorbike.
