Kelley Coyne is the Lead Preservation Technician and Audio Learning Specialist at BAVC. She specializes in transferring open-reel audio tapes and video cassette formats. She recently digitized a large VHS collection for the University of South Dakota, from which many of the tapes had extensive deterioration and alignment issues. Preserving this collection required hands-on remediation work and meticulous custom alignment of playback decks for each tape. She graduated with a BA from American University in Washington D.C. and received a Music and Recording Industry Certificate from San Francisco State University. Since then she has worked as a freelance audio engineer, as an educator for Women's Audio Mission, and was featured in KQED’s “Woman to Watch” documentary series.
