I had no doubt that the Musicians Institute was the right place to go.<\/p>\n<p>He said of his journey to and after MI,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;In 2020, I moved to LA. After becoming an Avid Pro Tools Certified and graduating from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mi.edu\/programs\/production\/audio-engineering\/\">Certificate Audio Engineering program<\/a> I met Sage Principini, producer and songwriter who brought me to his recording studio called Speakeasy Studios LA ,where I started as an intern. After a few months, they immediately pushed me to engineer the sessions. Now, I am the Lead Engineer of the studio and I couldn\u2019t be happier!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So far in his career, he has worked with Chance The Rapper, Bebe Rexha, the Italian Rockstar Vasco Rossi, and Ultimo among many others.
