Damon grew up witnessing Austin, Texas transform from a university town with a hippie culture to the vibrant live music capital and tech hub it is today. After earning a business degree from NYU, he returned to Austin with a passion for live music. In 2000, he managed a cozy venue on 6th Street known as "The Empanada Parlor," where university student musicians gathered to perform for friends and family. Out of these gatherings, the band "Grupo Fantasma" emerged, gaining success and prompting Damon to invest in professional audio equipment to support their growing opportunities.
Years of touring globally exposed Damon to cutting-edge audio technologies and shaped his vision for developing his namesake organization (when read backwards), which he chose to call Nomad in a nod to his journey. Now based in Colorado, Damon is dedicated to expanding Nomad's legacy through forging new relationships and seizing opportunities across the Front Range.
