Austin Palmer
Since I started playing guitar over twenty years ago, music has been a foundational aspect and obsession of my life. After cutting my teeth on classic rock and jazz, I quickly found a love for playing at my local church and picked up vocals. I quickly discovered that I had a gift for teaching others music and educating others on audio equipment, which lead to my employment at my previous job as a worship pastor at my local church.
My goal is to use my thousands of hours of music and audio experience to remove every obstacle between my customers and getting their message and music out there. I've already done all the hard work of researching and test driving whatever is you're looking into; let me help you!
As your personal contact here at Sweetwater, please let me know anytime I can offer help or advice.
