Hello, My name is Tony and ive been in the industry for about 3 1/2 years... a youngster I know.. always been interested in this stuff... got my first shot as a lead tech at Best Buy's Magnolia branch.. was there for a lil over a year.. then moved on to Circuit City's Firedog.. was there for about another year, got noticed by a local custom firm for my interface designs and they brought me on board and paid my way for AMX and Crestron training, been here at R2west Palm Desert CA for about a 1.5 years now and i LOVE it.. i was kinda of the Diamond in the rough and am GLAD i got a chance to work with real control systems, now i am the Project Coordinator and Lead Control systems programmer, wouldn't trade it for ANYTHING, with that being said i also would not have gotten my roots so deep in this great industry without Best Buy and Circuit CIty giving me my first breaks.
