I’m an audio engineer and music producer with over 10 years of experience across traditional recording, modern digital workflows, and the evolving world of AI-generated music. My work spans from commercial albums and large-scale music catalogues to podcast mastering, audiobook production, and building custom systems for scalable AI audio creation. My creative process is grounded in hands-on engineering and musicianship. I’ve produced thousands of AI-enhanced tracks, many designed to be ready for commercial use—from mixing and mastering to final delivery formats suitable for streaming, sync, and licensing. I primarily work in: DAWS: Logic Pro, Pro Tools, FL Studio Plugins: FabFilter, Waves, Ozone 11 AI Tools: Suno, Udio, Kitsai, Eleven Labs, and custom pipelines Output: Stereo masters, podcast-ready episodes, audiobooks, cinematic scores One of my specialities is mastering AI music to match professional loudness and clarity standards. I've developed custom mastering workflows to ensure AI-generated music isn’t just interesting—it sounds great and can be published confidently alongside traditionally produced content. On the voice side, I produce high-end audiobooks and podcasts, using tools like ElevenLabs to clone voices, enhance clarity, and create consistent, immersive listening experiences. I've also worked extensively with YouTubers and content creators to craft voiceovers, scripts, and soundtracks for videos—often integrating AI-generated elements to bring a unique edge to their content. What sets my work apart is a balance of technical expertise and creative intuition. Whether I’m building AI-powered music catalogues or mastering a podcast episode recorded remotely, I care about the final product sounding like it came from a world-class studio. With a bachelor's degree in music and audio production, I bring both academic knowledge and hands-on experience to every project. If you're looking for someone who deeply understands sound—both its traditional roots and its future—I’d love to connect and hear about your project.
