Alexander Lasa

As an avid lover of music, Alexander Lasa has dreamed of becoming a sound engineer since he was five years old. His love of music started at an early age, having grown up in a family that consisted of his mom, dad, and two siblings who also loved music. When he was eight years old, he built his first recording studio behind his grandmother's couch, where he could often be found listening to classical music. Some years later his grandmother gave him a tape recorder and that was the beginning of his lifelong pursuit of working in the audio industry.

Alexander attended Southwest Miami Senior High School, where he graduated with a 3.0 GPA. During his time in high school, he pursued the performing arts. He had a natural ear for music and played several instruments in the school orchestra. He easily jumped from the woodwind section to brass, percussion, and eventually to the piano. Later throughout the 80's and 90's his interest in contemporary music inspired him to experiment with synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines, guitars, and vocals. He even took a stab at acting in his high school's rendition of Luigi Pirandello's, Six Characters in Search of an Author. Additionally, he took courses at his local community college which allowed him to get a head start on his college work. He is currently a junior at Florida International University, where he is pursuing a BS degree in Multimedia Productions. He currently has a 3.670 GPA and works for the Miami-Dade Public
