If you care more about the final result than the producer’s ego, we’ll get along just fine. I’m here to support the project, respect the brief, and make sure the music does its job.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "This beat I instantly fell in love with! Once I recorded the song, I sent it to Jason Dowty to producer and mix and I was so pleased with the final product!
-Janna R
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - "...before it was so haphazard that so many projects ended up unfinished. I think I was just missing structure and organization. I was able to realease an EP - thanks for that help!"

WHY TRUST ME?
✅ Upwork is new to me. Professional music work is not.
✅ My music has been used in broadcast environments where timing, tone, and clarity matter. That experience shapes how I work with clients here, no matter the size of the project. You get the same care and professionalism whether it is a quick edit or a larger creative job.
✅ Working on real TV placements taught me something early on. Clients do not care about fancy tools or big creative speeches. They care about the result, the deadline, and how easy the process feels.
✅ I work with filmmakers, content creators, game developers, and businesses who want music and audio done right, without confusion, delays, or endless revisions.
✅ If you know what you want but do not want to explain it five different ways, I can help.
HOW I WORK
👉🏻 I treat music like a job to be finished, not a vibe to chase.
👉🏻 Clear direction up front, smart questions early, and steady progress until the project is done.
👉🏻 Most creative projects stall because expectations were fuzzy. I make them clear so you do not have to micromanage.
👉🏻 Communication is simple. Feedback is welcome. No disappearing acts.

Give me the raw recording. I’ll turn it into finished media.
I help podcasters, thought leaders, authors, educators, and purpose-driven brands transform raw recordings and long-form ideas into polished podcasts, professional video, cinematic trailers, and narrative-driven content.
Top-Ranked Upwork Freelancer | 100% JSS | 5-Star Reviews
You focus on the conversation. I handle what happens after you hit stop.
I specialize in complete podcast & video post-production—from dialogue editing, mixing and mastering to video, trailers, content repurposing, and publishing.
I engineer how content connects, feels, and stays with your audience.
🎙 FULL PODCAST & VIDEO PRODUCTION
Need someone who can own the post-production process rather than simply edit a file?
I can take your production from raw recording to finished media:
• Audio + video podcast editing
• Dialogue cleanup & audio restoration
• Professional mixing & mastering
• Multicam video editing
• Music, sound design & sonic branding
• Graphics, thumbnails & episode assets
• Show notes
• Audio + video publishing
• Podcast launches & production management
• Content strategy & repurposing
Raw recording → polished episode → published media.
My experience includes 150+ episodes produced within a 3-year client partnership, providing editing, publishing, PR, and full production while supporting a podcast that reached the Top 10% globally in its category.
🎬 CINEMATIC PODCAST & DOCUMENTARY TRAILERS
This is one of my specialties.
Give me a 60-minute podcast, interview, or documentary and I’ll find the emotional hooks, strongest ideas, tension, transformation, and moments that make an audience want more.
I transform long-form material into 30–120 second cinematic trailers using dialogue, music, sound design, pacing, and visuals to build a miniature story.
I don’t simply assemble highlights.
I find the story inside the recording.
✂️ LONG-FORM → SHORT-FORM
Great short-form content shouldn’t simply summarize the original.
It should make people want to experience it.
I identify the strongest moments inside podcasts, interviews, and documentaries and transform them into narrative-driven content designed to create curiosity and lead audiences back to the larger story.
🎧 WHY MY PRODUCTIONS SOUND DIFFERENT
Audio isn’t an afterthought in my video work.
My background spans professional recording, editing, mixing, mastering, composition, music production, and sound design—including two decades as a professional musician and composer, recording and touring with Grammy Award and Rock & Roll Hall of Fame artists and working in composition, editing, and sound design for film & television.
That experience taught me something that still guides my work:
Technology can polish content. Storytelling makes people feel it.
My advantage comes from three disciplines:
🎨 I CREATE from an award-winning artistic background.
⚙️ I SOLVE from a certified engineering & production background.
🧠 I CONNECT through narrative, sonic & visual psychology.
Every great production begins with a human truth—an insight, mission, or story waiting to come alive.
My role is to engineer its resonance.
