Associate Course Director
-
Jul 1998 - Nov 2008
Through my 10 year employment at Full Sail University I wore many hats for sure. I steadily expanded my position there as the years passed. I started off as the intern, then assistant lab instructor/lab instructor/head lab instructor for the MIDI and Pro Tools courses. I took a one year hiatus from teaching, to work for Full Sail's technical IT department where I wired, networked, maintained and in some cases designed many of the computer based lab rooms that exist there today. I also managed the asset storage networks for these rooms. At some point this consisted of 133 individual, networked student production workstations. Eventually, I was asked to assist with running my own course. This included twenty 4 hour lectures per month of up to 100 students at a time, writing course curriculum and tests, scan-tron machines, creating engaging PowerPoint's for the lectures, development of the lab projects, and on-stage student graduation ceremonies.
