Television
My introduction to the world of TV began with Kent State's ESPN production department, Teleproductions. Most of the time, I am their A1 (primary audio engineer), but I am familiar with each position inside the control room. At right is an example of the audio I have done. Teleproductions has taught me to think on my feet and collaborate with others to create a high-quality production worthy of being on TV.
One of the most challenging shows I do as a mixer is Kent State's live band entertainment show, Kentcore. This show takes live sound and puts it in a studio environment. With a limited number of microphones and equipment, we are put to the task every other week to make a show that feels as dynamic as a concert to the viewers at home.
Each year during election time, KSTV puts on a special election show and chooses select members of production to be a part of it. Being surrounded by people who were the best in their positions, able to take creative liberties, and passionate about being a part of this project was inspiring to watch and be a part of.
The first-ever newscast that our team aired on KSTV was a breaking news newscast. The death of Charlie Kirk was announced and publicly known less than an hour before we aired, and half an hour before the show needed to be completely built. Watching how the producers, production team, and talent adapted to include a significant topic of the time into a show that was already built is an experience that showed me the true meaning of adaptability.

For my writing-intensive course last semester, we were assigned to write an extensive research paper on a defined topic of our choosing. Given my degree in audio and my passion for all things production, I wrote my paper on the history of audio in production. With only one opportunity for revisions, I received a 100% on this paper. This paper serves as a reminder that with dedication and perseverance, hard work pays off.
