His background includes RF engineering and information technology, with particular experience configuring digital automation systems and remote voice-tracking platforms used by stations across the country. Ed was also among a select group of industry professionals invited by Google to its California headquarters following the company’s acquisition of Scott Studios.

He says the move into spoken-word broadcasting was a natural evolution after decades of experience in multiple areas of the industry.
