I've worked a variety of jobs, however my real passion is collecting vinyl records - which goes back over 20 years. I started collecting when I was 12 years old and by the time I was 15 I had my own DIY label. I released four 7" records for underground punk bands, three of which were pressed at United and one (a picture disk) was pressed at Pirates Press. Thereafter, I got involved in buying, selling and trading rare VHS tapes and records via private collector groups online.
Its my goal at this point in life to get involved more directly with the record industry which could include production, inspection, line work, shipping/receiving and a host of other duties I would be passionate about.
