"Your story deserves cinema-grade audio, not just a clean edit."
You’ve spent hours crafting the script and recording the voice. Don't let flat, amateur audio kill the immersion. I specialize in turning raw dialogue into broadcast-ready sonic experiences for narrative podcasts, audio dramas, and high-stakes branded content.
The Trask Standard:
I don't just remove noise; I engineer atmosphere. Using iZotope RX Advanced for surgical restoration and Ableton Live for creative sound design, I ensure every breath, footstep, and ambient layer serves the story.
My Core Services:
• ✅ Immersive Sound Design: Bespoke soundscapes, foley, and SFX that transport the listener.
• ✅ Surgical Dialogue Rescue: Removing reverb, clicks, background hum, and mouth noise without robotic artifacts (RX Specialist).
• ✅ Dynamic Mixing & Mastering: ACX/Apple Podcasts compliant loudness (-16 LUFS) with cinematic dynamic range.
Select Credits:
• Captain Radio: Lead Sound Designer for a complex sci-fi audio drama (Dialogue, SFX, Score).
• Premium Brand Campaigns: High-fidelity VO mastering for luxury fashion and corporate promotional content.
Why Work With Me?
I am a working Live Sound Engineer (A1) for major corporate events. I live in the pro audio world every day. I bring that same discipline and technical rigor to your remote project.
───
The "Audit" Offer:
Not sure if your audio is salvageable? Send me a 60-second sample. I will run a diagnostic and send back a polished version so you can hear the difference before you hire me.
Let’s make your project sound undeniable.

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 from a fully treated, acoustically calibrated studio designed for accurate mix translation. 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.

Music mixing and mastering (singles, albums, live recordings)
Podcast editing and production
Audiobook post-production and ACX-compliant mastering
Dialogue editing and cleanup (noise, breaths, clicks, level balancing)
