Music has been a part of my life as long as I can remember. I grew up in a high school band room with my grandfather being a band director and that's really where my obsession with music really began. From there I became very involved in Musical Theatre, performing in my first show at six years old and I haven't stopped singing since! From there I have performed in dozens of musicals, been in bands and choirs, played in several rock bands, and performed in and led a collegiate a cappella organization.

I realized in high school that I wanted to be a Sales Engineer at Sweetwater, so I decided in order to best prepare me to help customers someday, I wanted to obtain a degree in Music Media Production from Ball State University. This was where my journey as a studio and live sound engineer began and I absolutely fell in love with audio production. There I got experience recording and running live sound for many different styles of music, and before my senior year I was an A/V Technician Intern with an Event Production company. There I learned everything about putting a show together from start to finish and gained experience using top tier professional equipment in Audio, Video, and Lighting. Overall, I am so grateful for all of my experience and the fact that it has led me to being a part of the Sweetwater team!
