2021 In Review – Part 3 (August – October)

January 1, 2022

Picking up from yesterday –

July – Built a video game. We were going really hard toward the end of the semester/end of undergrad completely. So, pretty much all I did was work on projects. And one of those projects was for one of my minors – Sound Design for Video Games.

My game was overall based on a template, and it was fairly simple. So, it’s not like I built something that’s gonna change the world. But it was cool to be flexing the really technical muscles in my brain and know that I built a video game!

August – I freaking somehow did it. Finished undergrad after all these billions of years. Double major in Music Production & Engineering, and Electronic Production & Design with a double minor in Sound Design for Video Games, and Creative Coding. I also technically finished all the requirements for Music Business, even though Berklee doesn’t officially offer 3 majors.

September – Started working at The Drew Barrymore Show. Loved getting another talk show under my belt, and having a job in New York, while in grad school.

(Oh, I also ‘moved’ to New York [LA is always home base, but for the year], and started grad school.

October – The Ava DuVernay reality show I worked on aired! That was cool. (I don’t generally do reality anymore, but working for her is an obvious exception.) I felt lucky to be a part of it!

Also in New York, I did my first live performance since the pandemic started. (I know, I know, a pandemic mention. Take a shot.)

My friends had a comedy show, and asked me to come do a couple comedy songs. So happy they included me!

Also, in October, I did aaaaaaaall the Halloween things in LA. I’d always wanted to see what the various theme parks and things were like in LA. For various reasons, I spent weeks in October here. So, I got it all in!

And this is where I’ll pick up tomorrow!

I'd love to hear from you! So whaddya say?
