What Drives US...
First off, let me apologize wildly for this being the first blog post in almost 4 months - where in the heck has 2022 gone!? It seems like a blur up to this point. Creating amazing event after event and adding more and more people to the Stratum family has made this year more amazing than I could have ever imagined.
Fulfilling is an understatement to the progress our team is making and the clients we have been creating for.
While I am thankful for what 2022 has provided for our team I want to take a deeper dive into a topic that I have honestly done a sub par job in sharing - I want to give a behind the curtain peek into the heart and soul of Stratum and what keeps us going day after day, night after night, event after event - the thing that drives us to keep creating and producing events that make an impact.
Let me also be completely honest is saying that this might not be the answer you would assume it is. No we aren't in this space for the awesome gear, to stand next to rockstars, and travel the world. Those are all certainly "benefits" of the job and I do love a good nerd out session over a new lighting console, speaker that is changing the game, or light that packs more punch than a Sasquatch.
The real driving force behind what we do isn't this...

or this...

but it is this...

and this....
