Professional background

Expertise in Pro Audio and Consumer Electronics

Products that I’ve launched, marketed, and sold have made a significant impact on the ways in which you listen to and consume music. There’s a direct correlation between all the work I’ve done and those ubiquitous white earbuds that you see everywhere. And I recently captured that history in my first upcoming documentary "A Little More Me" which goes over the rise of in-ear technology through exclusive interviews with live sound engineers and tour managers from Maluma, Drake, U2, Van Halen, Queens of the Stone Age, Miley Cyrus and The Doobie Brothers — as well as from first hand accounts with headphone inventors and pioneers.
