In Their Own Words

I would like my students to come away with an understanding and appreciation of Pro Tools as one of the major DAWs for music production and delivery.

I spent many years on the bleeding edge of the recording business. My coworkers and I would be thrown into sink or swim situations with big clients. Get the manual and never let them see you sweat was the call of the day.
I think showing someone the way to learn a craft is as artful as it gets.
