I’m an audio engineer with over 15 years of experience in recording, mixing, mastering, editing, audio repair, and sound design. My work spans music production, podcast editing, and creative audio projects, helping artists, podcasters, and storytellers bring their ideas to life and communicate with clarity and impact. In 2024, I helped launch over 50 new podcasts and edited more than 1,000 episodes for a variety of clients. I use a blend of industry-standard software including Pro Tools, iZotope RX, Adobe Audition, and Adobe Premiere to deliver polished, broadcast-ready results. I specialize in audio repair and noise removal, restoring damaged recordings and cleaning up audio captured in less-than-ideal situations to achieve as close to professional clarity as possible. This skill has been especially valuable in podcast production, remote interviews, and archival projects. I’ve worked with a wide spectrum of clients, from local artists and content creators to well-known corporations and celebrities — adapting my workflow to meet the unique needs of each project while maintaining the highest level of quality for file delivery and time management. Beyond editing and production, I also bring expertise in sound design. One of my most prolific projects has been an immersive children’s podcast where I produce/composed original music and craft all sound effects to create a rich, imaginative, and engaging world for young listeners. With a strong focus on creativity and communication, I approach every project as an opportunity to connect through sound. As a self-starter, I thrive in independent projects while also collaborating closely with teams to achieve professional, compelling results.
