I'm a multi-faceted production professional specializing in recording and mixing sound, cutting picture, and graphic design. I've been involved with this work in some capacity since I was 16. My work on animations and live action projects has afforded me numerous opportunities to create soundscapes from scratch, record clean voice over, and mix for screenings. Many of these projects have been seen on screens across numerous film festivals across the country.
In my spare time, I'm a photographer, and a guitarist and songwriter in search of a stage and audience.
I strive to work on ethically fulfilling projects and with passionate content creators on games, apps, and other digital media.
