Hire the Best Audio Engineers in Missouri

I've spent over 15 years in professional audio, starting in live sound and production leadership across multi-campus church environments before moving into freelance post-production. That foundation shaped how I work: reliable, detail-oriented, and built for real deadlines. My work spans two main areas. On the music side, I mix and master singles, albums, and live recordings across genres from a treated, acoustically calibrated studio. As a working guitarist, I approach music production from the inside out, not just as a technical exercise. On the spoken word side, I specialize in podcast editing and audiobook post-production, including ACX-compliant mastering, dialogue cleanup, and full delivery workflows that keep listeners engaged without over-processing the natural voice. I also produce meditation and ambient soundscape content blending guitar, synths, and atmospheric textures, and offer DAW and audio workflow training for musicians, podcasters, and content creators.

I have over 7 years of professional multimedia production experience across audio and visuals in radio shows, podcasts, musical albums, films, audiobooks, and educational videos. I have worked with university professors, authors, musicians, and directors to produce high quality work under tight deadlines. My primary skillsets are in audio and music — editing and mixing since 2006. I am proficient in editing and repairing music and dialog using Fender Studio Pro 8 and Izotope RX 9. I compose jingles and short songs for videos as well as read sheet music for music production. I have provided sound design and created original soundscapes for feature films, short films, audiobooks, and podcast as well as produced and edited multiple musical albums. I have been producing, filming, and editing videos since 2017. From pre-production to post-production, I plan with Storyboarder, shoot with Panasonic S1H, edit with Kdenlive, and create motion graphics, color, and compose with Natron. I create original artwork and demonstrations utilizing GIMP, Krita, Inkscape, and Blender. Finally, I am a script writer and copywriter. I learned screenwriting as an undergraduate from 2017 as well as having my first year on track to an MFA in dramatic writing. I have written short films, video scripts, and plays utilizing Final Draft 12. Each week I write copy for radio and podcast episodes to create excitement and interest, attracting new viewers to growing shows. I am a technical creative and while my skillsets are broad, I take everything I put forward seriously, spending much of my free time learning and applying skills both personally and professionally. I love producing, creating, and cohesively connecting content. Let's discuss how I can help you deliver polished audio and video projects on time!
