About

My background and experiences range in a variety of areas. These areas include business, finance, doc management, and teaching, as well as music production and sound design. While they may seem diverse in nature, these are areas of my life I am passionate about and each have complemented each other in such a way to which I believe have made me a more holistic and dynamic person. Will always be willing to pursue opportunities that incorporate in some way, one or more of these aspects.
