Education

AAS Audio Engineering - 2007

Focus: Post Production and Audio Technology

I hand-picked Lucas because I could tell he had the makings of a true technical lead. Turns out, I got this one right. In the time that I've worked with him, he's become an indispensable asset for one of our cloud-based products. Lucas' problem solving skills are second-to-none; he can be given tasks with little direction or oversight and he will always deliver. Lucas is a self-learner, self-starter, and always eager to move to the next level. If you really want to make Lucas happy, give him a problem that he needs to chew on for a while. He's not just a good problem solver; he actively enjoys solving problems.
