In 10 words or less…

Describe your job.
I push buttons, turn knobs, slide faders, and teach others
Describe a normal day.
I fix something someone else broke, research new equipment, fix something else that someone else broke, respond to email, return phone calls, pray, schedule volunteers, meetings, plug something in that someone else unplugged, meetings, pray, fix something else.
Meetings…love ‘em or hate ‘em?
Hate ‘em
Favorite accomplishment/project since joining staff?
In one week completing all the AV wiring and soldering for every worship room at 345 Fischer, and during the same week disassembling all of the Senior Center equipment and reinstalling it at Fischer; and doing all of this with a 95% volunteer crew.
