After graduating from the University of Alabama in 2005 with a concentration in non-linear editing – Tyler was in for a trial by fire when he got involved with a small production company. “I learned more in the first 6-months after college than I did in my four years. Not to say I didn’t learn anything – college definitely served its purpose, but there’s no substitute for real world experience.”
At the production company Tyler had the opportunity to wear many hats and find his niche – on location, and in production, as opposed to behind the scenes editing in post. It wasn’t long before Tyler gravitated towards sound. Growing up in a musical family where his father is a Band Director, his mom a trumpet player, all 3 of his siblings talented musicians, and Tyler himself marched in a Drum & Bugle Corps (http://www.dci.org/) – sound seemed like a natural choice.
The other thing that attracted Tyler to the all encompassing world of sound was the objective angle. “So much of production is inherently subjective due its creative nature, but with sound it’s different. You have to be creative in the capture, blocking out the ambient sounds when appropriate, but the end result should always be the same… quality sound that brings a film to life.”
Tyler’s other draw to sound work is the pressure that comes from the standards of which professional sound is judged. “My favorite thing about sound is that you only get one chance to get it right – especially if you’re working on something live.” With such a dedicated ethic, it should come as no surprise that when Tyler and his wife moved to Dallas, Texas, on a Monday, Tyler had found work by Wednesday… on a show called Prison Break.
In addition to working on Season 3 of Prison Break on Fox, Tyler has also worked on Oprah, MTV’s Making the Band 4, as well as other notables such as Mary Kay Cosmetics, Lexus, Frito-Lay, Allstate, and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).
During the Writer’s Strike, Tyler bought all of his own gear and in concordance with a goal he had set early in life he is now living his entrepreneurial dream at the age of 24. “I've always wanted to do something that I love to do, and I really do enjoy doing what I do, the people I meet, and the places I go. As the times change and technology progresses, I am ever more ready to set sail for any challenge put in front of me. I love my job and I wouldn't trade it for the world.”
PART II coming soon…

Kayden (18-21) -- Growing up rich, Kayden is used to getting everything she's ever wanted. So, when she ends up in therapy with the charming Trevor Whim it's only natural for him to become her boyfriend -- only, she got more than what she bargained for.
