Before I started the MCBS program I was freelancing in the live events industry.
Steve Miller Band
Texas State Athletics
The Cure
Various 5K’s and Marathons
This provided me the opportunity to work on many notable events, including the MS150, the Capitol 10K, Austin City Limits Music Festival, SXSW, the Governor's Inauguration and the
Texas Book Festival.
I had always thought I wanted to work in the digital media field.
Initially when I launched my school career I studied Radio/TV/Film, but it was not until I moved to Austin I enjoyed the benefits of my decision to enter this field.
Being able to work concerts of my favorite music groups I had only seen on television or the web was, at the time, a dream come true.
Cypress Hill
But then, my opportunities for employment became sporadic.
I would reach out to my contacts I made during this journey for permanent employment opportunities but nobody answered the phone calls.
Because of that I began looking to get back into school.
I had the work experience and an excellent reputation around town for my work ethic, but lacked the credentials for what I wanted pursue.
Finding a school that incorporated my experiences with a schedule that would work for me was my main objective.
Because of that, I was able to find Full Sail, which allowed me to work and continue my pursuit of higher education.
Until I finally made the initial contact with Full Sail, I thought finishing school was not in my future and ever since I decided to pursue my passion for media in the MCBS degree program, I realize this dream can come true.
The photo above is a representation of my influences during my school journey. Ted Lange as Isaac from The Love Boat reminds me to stay cool during the stressful times and Andy Kaufman as Latka reminds me to have fun with all I do.
