Sound Productions (SoundPro) announced that Kyle Benson has been selected as the 2022 recipient of SoundPro’s Jeff Humphrey Technical Scholarship. Kyle will be studying at Middle Tennessee State University for a degree in audio production.
In 2010, SoundPro CEO Joshua Curlett established an annual scholarship in the amount of $2,500 for graduating seniors in pursuit of a technical audiovisual degree. The scholarship was renamed in 2020 to honor the memory of SoundPro’s executive vice president, Jeff Humphrey, an industry pioneer and SoundPro legacy leader.
