My Training

My training, like so many others, is entirely accidental.
I was on my way to a great career in animal husbandry when I accidentally got into college radio.
Then, I accidentally got recruited to be a drag race announcer.
It wasn't long after that I tripped over a microphone at an event and accidentally became an emcee.
Some years ago, my wonderful wife accidentally belived I had something to offer and allowed me to purchase some studio gear.
Perhaps you'll accidentally be impressed enough to hire me and the Jack Of All Pipes Studios!
