Avery Carroll is an experienced audio engineer with eight years working across live performance, theatre, and venue sound in the Ogden/Salt Lake region, and is an IATSE Local 720 member. They currently split time between roles at Euphoric Beats, William's Signal, Ballet West and Weber State University, bringing hands-on expertise in FOH, A2/deck audio, and electrics for touring and institutional productions. Avery pairs practical venue experience with technical curiosity—contributing to open-source Java tooling for Discord (JDA) where they improved backend APIs and fixed tricky state/option bugs—so they often write code when bored to solve production problems. Comfortable in high-pressure, collaborative environments, they combine stagecraft discipline with a knack for refactoring systems and clarifying workflows.
