ArtsApp is an audition and applicant management tool that modernizes the media submission and application process for arts organizations. Our hosted software provides tools to manage and review audition materials in a completely digital environment.

I help find the best ways to build, host, and continue development of ArtsApp.

Founded in 1991, Implex is a privately held company based in Minneapolis, Minnesota. We’ve evolved from a business-class Internet Service Provider (ISP) and interactive media company to become Minnesota’s premier ‘Technology Service Provider’. Today, Implex has continued to experience significant growth and has partnered with more than 2,000 clients worldwide - assisting them to achieve their technological objectives and make meaningful connections between their customers, vendors and employees in the digital economy.

My role includes:

- Leading all streaming media research and development
- Assisting upper management in process definition and refinement
- Leading live web casting technical efforts nationally

- Ceiling-mounted projectors for displaying computer or video output
- Cart-mounted computer workstations for instructor use
- A broadcast production facility, capable of functioning independently, that also integrates with the University’s television and theater facilities in the Rarig Center
