There's a lot of people in Houston that could do this for you. Put a thread in the proper forum and you'll get plenty of local responses.

do you get a certificate and everything?!

Sorry...don't want to derail things, the idea of engineers being "certified" is just funny.

Selling lots of records is no guarantee of quality either. Showreel is I guess.

Almost self-evidently, "certified" means "has a recognisable qualification in" - hence the similarity to the word "certificate".

You're defining "competent" which is arguably the word the OP should have used - maybe along with "talented", "experienced" and "creative".

There's not really a certificate to show engineering competency, maybe the closest is a tonmeister degree (can't see many hip hop engineers with one, not that every tonmeister can mix hiphop).
