Summary

Keith Freund is trained as a music production engineer but spends most of his time as a web entrepreneur who hates to be bored. His first company, Fix Your Mix, has been providing audio mixing and mastering services over the internet since 2008. Fix Your Mix is not a recording studio, but manages engineers who perform these services remotely. “I'm willing to live with financial stress to do what I love to do,” Keith says. “I hate being bored more than anything else. Security is good but, I'm more afraid of being ordinary.” Now that he’s doing what he loves, he adds, “I haven't been bored for many years.”
