I started my interest in Programming, Audio Visual Systems, and Information Technology at the age of 8 after writing my first Basic Program and then assembly language app on a Tandy Model 1. I have now accumulated over 30 years of advanced experience in the world of Advanced Audio Visual Systems, Information Technology, and Electronics Engineering. Highly experienced with all versions of Microsoft, several Linux/BSD, and OSX operating systems. I have touched and used almost every type of IT hardware except for Cray supercomputers. From 9 track tape reel drives to the latest Power-vaults and Top of the line Enterprise level Servers running hundreds of VM instances and Networking gear From Cisco to Extreme, to HP and beyond. Extensive background in professional AV and Teleconferencing equipment from Crestron Teams Zoom, Cisco/Tandberg to Polycom. Certified Crestron Master Programmer with thousands of hours of experience in Commercial and Residential systems with extensive experience and abilities in Audio and DSP programming. I excel in any and all aspects of IS, IT and AV and Professional Audio, from pulling wire to advanced configuration, programming, and support as well as consulting and design. Today I am an expert in building automation as well as boardroom and whole building AV distribution with the latest digital video and media distribution systems as well as building automation. From HVAC to lighting to video and everything else in between I have gained the hands-on experience and education to deliver multiple solutions for every need. Because of this vast experience in Crestron and Automation, I now am a key senior instructor and curriculum developer for the next generation of AV programming specalists by passing on the knowledge I have amassed in the field, as well as the engineer's curated curriculum of existing and new products at Crestron, while continuing to improve and learn more skills to stay on top of the changes in the industry.
