Jesse Madison, Instructor
Jesse Madison, Founder of The Fiber Guy and Purple Tally Productions, has been working with fiber optic technology for over 20 years. His experience has grown through work in partnerships with NBC, ESPN, ABC Sports, NHL, MN Wild, Skycam, FOX Sports North, and many more.
With years of extensive fiber optic experience under his belt and the growing need for a full service fiber optic company, he founded the Fiber Guy to provide fiber optic training, installation, sales and repair. Providing training classes all over the country since 2014 is something Jesse is very proud of. Sharing the learned skills around this technology and watching fellow technicians light up when they start grasping the concepts and asking great questions has become incredibly rewarding for him.
