Your game is fun to play - now let's make it satisfying to hear. I help game developers create immersive game audio experiences through professional sound design, sound effects (SFX), and seamless audio implementation, so every interaction feels polished and rewarding.
Whether you're replacing placeholder sounds, adding the finishing touches before launch, or need a complete audio solution, I can handle everything from custom sound design and music integration to technical audio implementation in Unity, Unreal Engine, Wwise, and FMOD.
I focus on creating audio that enhances the player's experience - from impactful gameplay feedback and atmospheric environments to dynamic music systems and immersive soundscapes. Every sound should serve a purpose: making actions feel responsive, building immersion, and helping your world come alive.
With experience as a game Sound Designer and Technical Sound Designer, I can support the full audio pipeline - creating original SFX, UI sounds, ambience, cinematic audio, and interactive audio systems, then integrating everything directly into your project.
My goal is simple: to help your game deliver a more immersive and satisfying experience through sound.
🎮 WHAT I DO
▶ Game-ready sound design (SFX, UI, ambiences, characters)
▶ Audio implementation in Unity using Wwise or FMOD
▶ Interactive & adaptive audio systems (RTPCs, states, switches)
▶ Performance & memory optimization for mobile and PC
▶ Debugging, profiling, and documentation
▶ Clear communication with dev teams and producers
✅ HOW I WORK
I work with clear milestones, regular check-ins, and transparent communication.
Whether you need full audio integration or help fixing an existing setup, my goal is to make audio stable, scalable, and easy to maintain for your team.
🎧 Creative Focus
I specialize in atmospheric and immersive sound design, with a strong focus on tension, spatial depth, and emotional impact.
Some of my favorite games, audio-wise, are: Half-Life 2, The Last of Us, Inside, Ori and the Blind Forest, It Takes Two, and The Stanley Parable - projects where sound design supports storytelling, mechanics, and player psychology rather than existing as decoration.
From a musical perspective, my background in electronic and hybrid composition informs my approach to interactive audio systems, layering, transitions, and adaptive structures rather than standalone tracks.

I'm a sound designer specialized in audio post production for corporate videos, podcasts, commercials and much more.
I have an excellent knowledge of Pro Tools, the program in which I do most of my editing, mixing and mastering works.
When I take care of an audio track I also take care of its cleaning and repairs in case there is a need.
I am also a music composer and a foley artist, so if necessary I will also be able to create customized soundtracks and sound effects.
Regular communication is really important to me, so let’s keep in touch!”

Music and sound are so important: I believe they both can create emotion and give much power to images. So, I take my job very seriously, as I know that a not appropriate background can totally waste a beautiful video, or give the wrong message.
These are also subjects that I love to share, as they are quite crucial: in recent years, I performed seminars and published a book about soundtrack analysis ("La musica in-visibile", 2020), and how sounds can affect videos.
I'm deadline-oriented and creative. And I like teamwork: brainstorming and collaborating with other people make ideas come out very easily.
What I can do:
• Work fast and with many kinds of music: I played and composed swing, jazz, contemporary classical, rock, LoFi, blues, bossa nova, tango, folk;
• I can use a lot of different instruments (I play guitar, bass), both acoustic and electronic;
• Orchestrate and Arrange;
• Engrave scores, lead sheet;
• Audio Editing;
• Record and Mix in my home studio.
Programs I use:
• Logic Pro X
• Sibelius
• Musescore
• Audacity
I speak Italian (native), English (professional), and Spanish (conversational).
