New Job

I was recently chosen to be a research assistant in the Hearing Aid Lab at the University of Iowa. So far, I've been using digital audio editing software to analyze the ways in which different hearing aids process and output sound... a task strikingly similar to the digital video and sound editing I was involved in at the job I left in order to go back to school and change careers. Ha! It seems I'm doomed to be sitting in front of a computer monitor for all-eternity. Just kidding... it's actually a super interesting place to work.

Here's a link to the staff website. I made the top of the list. Woot!
