What was/is your day job?

For about 4 years I’ve been teaching at a film/recording school … I’m a lab instructor for film sound and mastering classes … I like the work and the co-workers. It doesn’t consume my time or energy, allowing me to work on my music.

For a couple of years going, every couple of months I master a handful of cds for some composers I know who are signed to exclusive libraries … that’s what got me interested in doing this for a living.

Film sound recordist/music and sound editor/composer for about 10 years. Then film music /library composer/sound designer for another 15 years…with a dash of teaching and new age/smooth jazz artist thrown in.
Then, a journey to the “other” side…law school and practicing law, which took about 10 years.
Now…composing full-time.
