Eiman Othman of Gold Standard Studios

“I’m a firm believer in life rewards leaps of faith and I just don’t believe in doing anything you don’t want to do for the rest of your life. Even if that means you take a chance and then you fail. At least we tried. That's the biggest thing for us. Because I know the talent Ian has and I know what he can bring if he were just given the opportunities. And I know the same for myself, and the same for Nick.”

Eiman Othman, San Diego transplant originally from Kansas City, is an audio engineer who's worked with musicians and artists to create music, produce podcasts, work on films, do field recordings, and practically anything sound related. Eiman has recently taken his audio engineering career to new heights in opening up a multi-purpose creative called Gold Standard Studios alongside his partners, Nick Palumbo and Ian Gutierrez (Fides Rex). Gold Standard Studios will be the first studio of its kind in San Diego to have an available recording studio and photography studio all under one roof. The team behind Gold Standard has always been one to support the community, which is why they decided to create a space like this. They'll be flying a lucky person to San Diego to use the space to create freely for a few days - so be sure to stay tuned to how you can qualify to win this pretty sweet giveaway they'll be hosting in a few months.In this episode of the podcast, we chat about taking leaps of faith, giving back to the community through your creativity, and how important it is to not only have a brilliant idea but to put in the work! Eiman has been an integral part of the Coffee & Convos team as our sound engineer and producing the best quality audio to make this new podcast venture a reality.
