About me
I am an aspiring audio engineer and music producer looking for entry level opportunities. My education includes studying at CUNY New York City College of Technology in Computer Systems Technology. I graduated from CUNY LaGuardia Community College in June 2016 with an A.A.S degree in Music Recording Technology. In 2015, I graduated from The Institute of Audio Research, where I obtained certification in Audio Engineering. In preparation for this, I have learned many skills that relate to working in technology, such as soldering to transistor boards. I also learned about creation, termination and crimping of musical instrument, XLR and A/V cables, as well as CAT 5, 5e and 6 cables. I have also learned basic electronics and how to read schematics. Other courses I took included learning basic micing techniques, speaker and amp setup for studio recording and setting up studio sessions through ProTools. I have learned how to create projects in post production using music, dialogue, sound editing and sound design. I have also learned how to create mixes and created several projects using MIDI production.In addition to that, I have been playing the piano and writing music all my life. I took private piano lessons for a few years, and then I attended Five Towns College where I learned the most of my music theory knowledge, including composition, arranging and vocal techniques. I also sang in many choirs and choruses and played piano for recitals.
I would also like to get into doing voiceover work. This has always been an interest of mine.
My ultimate goal is to write, perform and sing music for visual purposes like film scoring, commercial jingles and video games. I would also like to do sound editing, as well as voiceover work and acting.
