About

I am a sound engineer aiming to offer the best services in terms of sound reproduction and reinforcement. I have worked at an online radio/studio (Proaktive Radio) and interned at Radio Africa Group where I have honed my skills in radio broadcasting and sound equipment repair as well as maintenance. I have worked in this field for three years and still I continue to search for new ways to improve and broaden my knowledge.

Experience

Proaktive Radio

As a start-up, Proaktive radio needed a lot in terms of sound equipment for broadcasting and recording purposes, as a member of the sound department. I worked with the IT department to set up streaming to the website. I was also placed in charge of broadcasting equipment, including setting up and configuring mixers, mics, monitors, and desktops.

Intern at Radio Africa

As an intern, I learned more about broadcasting through radio frequencies and also repairing sound equipment as well as other equipment used for broadcasts such as Lights, Radio consoles, and Servers.

Education

DIPLOMA IN SOUND ENGINEERING (Africa Digital Media Institute)

2018 - 2021/22

During my time at ADMI, I gained skills in equipment repair and maintenance. I grew an interest in Live sound and used to help in set up and set down of equipment. This helped me grow my skills in organizing audio cables and planning out layouts of stages/sets.
