Dominick Palumbo
Founder / Director / Engineer
Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, I headed to the wilds of Alaska for college. I spent the next 10 years out west working in IT, networking, and telecommunications. Ready for a reset, I returned home to pursue my lifelong dream of working in film and television. I started out in audio engineering and eventually was recruited to post-production, media management, and studio engineering. After more than 10 years working in-house at ABC, I opened APAE Productions as a full-service production company, bringing my unique blend of engineering, networking, and creativity to every production.
