About Me

Member Since 2011 | Views: 3,237

Serving as Audio Visual Manager for AECOM, one of the world’s leading engineering firms to broadcast recording engineer charged with live-to-network and multi-track studios, field events and Master Control operations for the largest international broadcasters - National Public Radio (NPR) and Voice of America - has been the hallmark of my 20-year career.

A steady hand with versatile skills: Technically proficient in wide array of analog and digital equipment. Deep signal flow abilities. Detailed audio quality control and signal processing. Advanced MS and Mac OS skills. Technical Trainer for broadcast engineers and production personnel in studio and field disciplines. Audio Visual Event Designer, installer, operator and Instructor. Professional performer, speaker and publisher writer.

I’ve enjoyed opportunities to work in A/V Events, broadcast and recording studios as well as on the road at political, theatrical and musical events. I have worked with Presidents, theater and movie stars and world-class musicians. I broadcast, record and Front-of-House mix music - pop, jazz, classical, and opera - in diverse venues from studios to concert halls to nightclubs to outdoor festivals.

I’ve set up and operated A/V presentations for conferences, performances, and training sessions - I recently managed the A/V technical requirements for the internationally-transmitted resignation ceremony of Mr. Leon Panetta, Director of the CIA. I’m an audio engineering road warrior. I enjoy the chaos and responsibility. I wish to continue contributing to the broadcast, performance and recording arts.

My off-the-clock activities include world travel, performing, documentary videography and acoustic instrument repair/restoration. Please review my enclosed resume - I’m eager to speak with you about joining forces.

Cheers,
Mark Greenhouse
