Zachary Lacroix

Majored in Bs In Communications Technology - Live Sound Technology
Husson University, Class of 2019
From Roanoke, VA

I work as a System Engineer for Parsons Audio, with a strong interest in large and complex systems mainly focused around audio. Although my primary focus and skill set is on sound technologies, I also have a good understanding of video, lighting, theater and technical management, and event leadership. As an Eagle Scout, I also believe in being proud of my work, and therefore strive to do my best in any environment. I am good at using skills across my life, for example applying knowledge learned from working in a climbing area to basic safe rigging practices and a working knowledge of knots and heights in my entertainment jobs. In my personal life, I enjoy listening to music, spending time with friends, and exploring the outdoors, I especially enjoy hiking, biking, and climbing.
