We recently connected with Vickisha Morency and have shared our conversation below.
Alright, so we’re so thrilled to have Vickisha with us today – welcome and maybe we can jump right into it with a question about one of your qualities that we most admire. How did you develop your work ethic? Where do you think you get it from?
My approach to work is influenced by a blend of factors. Primarily, I credit my upbringing for instilling in me a strong work ethic. Growing up in a Haitian household, both my parents worked tirelessly to provide a better future for my two sisters and me. They imparted values like perseverance, dedication, and responsibility. Furthermore, I draw inspiration from accomplished individuals who exemplify a steadfast commitment to their endeavors. Additionally, I emphasize the importance of goal-setting and maintaining discipline to reach those objectives. Ultimately, my genuine passion for my work serves as a driving force, propelling me to consistently pursue excellence.
Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?
Growing up in the vibrant city of North Miami, Florida, music was more than just a hobby for you—it was a way of life. From the moment you picked up your first instrument. My journey with music began in middle school when I joined the band. After graduating from high school, I decision to pursue my passion further by enrolling at Full Sail University for Recording Arts. Here, I immersed myself in the technical intricacies of sound engineering, learning the art of capturing, mixing, and mastering music to perfection. Upon graduating in 2019, I moved to Atlanta, GA. Securing an internship at Means Street Studio.
I currently work as a recording engineer at Sony Music Publishing. Additionally, I run my own company, Sound On Ground, where I offer audio services to individuals and businesses. Throughout my career, I have collaborated with a variety of companies and artists, including Disney, Atlantic Records, Roc Nation, the Atlanta Youth Orchestra, Rod Wave, Playboi Carti, Metro Boomin, Flo Milli, and many others.
If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?
Looking back, I would say that the qualities and skills essential in the music industry can be summed up as the “big three”: preparation, patience, and purpose. As an engineer, you must always be prepared because you never know when you’ll get the call to work on a project. That one opportunity could either make or break your career, so it’s crucial to stay updated with the latest technology.
Patience is another key attribute. There were many nights, especially when I was an intern, where I wanted to quit. However, I had to be patient and understand that everything happens in God’s timing.
Finally, purpose is very important to me. It’s the reason I get up every day to do my job. I have set goals and a family to support. Every move I make is somewhat calculated to ensure it’s best for me and my future. Always do what’s best for you!
What has been your biggest area of growth or improvement in the past 12 months?
I’ve significantly improved my ability to understand and respond to more complex and nuanced queries. This includes better contextual understanding and providing more accurate, relevant, and comprehensive information.
