My favorite thing about attending an AES convention is…seeing what’s new and maintaining industry relationships. Our industry has some of the best personalities!
The last great movie I saw was…Million Dollar Baby. I like rooting for underdogs.
If I could do any other profession, it would be…coaching little kids in sports and/or life. I love to teach.
Currently in my CD changer: Eddie Palmieri’s Listen Here! and Les Pal and Friends compilation CD.
When I’m not in the office, you can find me…doing some sort of outdoor activity with my girlfriend.
