음악 제작 1.0: 오디오 기본 및 DAW 소개

I have over 20 years of experience as a Music Producer and Engineer, and even more as a Musician. 10 of those years I spent actively working in the mainstream music/entertainment industry. During that time, I was blessed to win a GRAMMY award, work on several Billboard charting and Platinum selling projects, and tour around the world with some of the industries biggest artists. 

I've always been passionate about sharing my experiences. I think it's important to allow people to see the highs and lows that come with this particular career path. I make a point to include as much of my real life experience in my courses. I think it helps make it more real, especially for students who may want to seriously consider pursuing a career in the music industry.

I have been teaching in some capacity for most of my life. I first started as a teenager, teaching piano lessons on the weekends at a music school near my house. I also worked with children as a camp counselor for a few years after high school. After college I was pretty engulfed in my career, but I always made time to mentor young people whenever I could. I'm proud to say that a handful of the people I've had the opportunity to share my time and knowledge with have gone on to have successful music careers.

Ultimately, my passion as an educator lies in helping young people recognize the power of their IDEAS! Imagination and creativity are tools that can literally propel them to create whatever kind of life they desire for themselves. My hope for this program is for it to enhance what already exists inside their minds, and give them the technical skills they need to make the process of bringing those ideas to life more seamless and more fun!
