About Me

Ricardo Cervantes, Jr.

I am an audio enthusiast currently enrolled at Utah Valley University. I've gained experience and a passion for audio from live sound experience that preceded my formal education. I began my work in live sound at the Soundwell, located downtown Salt Lake City. Through them I diversified my experience with live production including expert lighting design as part of my abilities. My goal is to become an acoustic engineer as I further my desire to help others reach their goals with music from the studio to the live stage, to film sound design and beyond.

Personal Life

I am a live production person at heart, through and through. While living in Utah these past 6 years, I've been to more concerts than the average American attends in a lifetime.

I grew up playing classical and jazz trumpet all throughout school having participated in the Youth Symphony of Southern Oregon for 8 years and an award winning jazz flugelhorn player. I have been part of my high school's choir program, and am a current member of the Wasatch Corale.

I also enjoy live theatre. I began my roots there as a member of the pit orchestra, eventually migrating to the spotlight in both musicals and Shakespeare. productions.
