01. ABOUT ME

WELCOME

Hi, I'm Larry Tsao. I currently work as a Talent Acquisition Coordinator at Behr, where I focus on streamlining onboarding processes, managing data integrity, and improving operational efficiency. Before this, I graduated from UC Riverside with a degree in Sociology and worked there as an HR Operations Assistant, supporting campus hiring and personnel management.

My passion lies where art, music, and technology intersect. I serve as the Lighting Director for Stream of Praise (讚美之泉), creating immersive visual experiences through lighting for their live productions and music videos. I serve as an audio engineer at Beloved Church, mixing live services with a focus on mixing sound that facilitates heartfelt worship and supports the atmosphere. In the studio, I'm exploring the art of mixing and mastering worship recordings, translating live moments into polished tracks that capture the spirit of worship. I'm also passionate about capturing worship visually, combining creative storytelling and technical skill as a camera operator and broadcast operator for Beloved's Sunday livestream.

When I'm not working or designing, I enjoy building custom PCs, exploring sci-fi and fantasy books, playing bass, gaming, and working on personal tech projects. Some of my most recent projects include setting up a Hackintosh desktop and running a LLM (Large Language Model) locally, and working on this very website you're on!

Sound Engineer

Beloved Church

I have the privilege of serving as the sound engineer during Sunday services at Beloved Church, working alongside a talented and passionate team whose dedication to pure worship sets the tone for the congregation. Behind the console, I translate their energy into mixes that are clear, distraction-free, and spiritually engaging, helping to create a cohesive and immersive worship environment. Beyond live services, I work on mixing and mastering worship recordings in Logic Pro; digging into how professionals use their tools and techniques to shape clarity, balance, and dynamics as I continue developing my own skills.
