I let my work speak for itself, showing a passion for high fidelity sound recordings with a work history of taking on a wide range of productions with complex requirements. I love implementing creative solutions & overcoming the challenges of working on location to deliver high quality location sound despite each production’s unique needs. Having more than a decade of audio production experience experience to draw on, I bring a depth of knowledge beyond the average sound mixer. While production sound is my specialty, having had previous experience in commercial recording studios, with post-production, classical music recording, live sound reproduction, etc., it gives me experience to take on productions with atypical needs…. I love unique projects and the challenges that come with them, from complex shoots with high channel counts and a full sound team to fast paced shooting environments as a solo operator, or talk show style productions with complex routing, it’s always rewarding to tackle these challenges head on and conquer them!
