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. Services: 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) Meditation and ambient soundscape production DAW and audio workflow training Tools: Pro Tools, Logic Pro, iZotope RX, WaveLab, Descript, Audacity Hourly work: $50/hr Audiobook post-production: $150 per finished hour Clean, natural, and distraction-free audio without over-processing. Military background. Professional workflow. No drama.

I help artists, podcasters, and brands sound polished, professional, and memorable. Whether you’ve got raw vocals that need love, a podcast full of “uhhh’s” and background noise, or a video that needs punchy, custom audio, I’ve got you. What I Do 🎧 Mixing & basic mastering Rap, rock, country, pop, singer-songwriter, and everything in between Balancing levels, EQ, compression, saturation, FX, stereo image Delivering radio/streaming-ready mixes 🎙️ Podcast & dialogue editing Clean-up (mouth noise, clicks, hum, room tone, background noise – as far as realistically possible) Tight edits that keep the conversation flowing Adding intros/outros, ads, and music beds Loudness matched for platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, etc. 🎵 Music & audio for content Custom intros/outros and jingles for brands and creators Short music cues and loops for YouTube, reels, promos, and ads Beat selection and light production help for vocalists and rappers 🛠 Other audio help Session organization and cleanup Stems prep for live shows or remixing Basic sound design and FX for short-form video Tools & Tech DAWs: Logic Pro X (primary), Pro Tools experience Interfaces & gear: Scarlett 18i20 and pro monitoring setup Plugins: A solid toolbox of industry-standard EQs, compressors, reverbs, delays, saturation and restoration tools File delivery: WAV/AIFF/MP3, stems, project/session files if needed Background & Education Associate Degree in Audio Production – Full Sail University (2025) Founder of Breezy Digital Works, a small audio/visual studio where I produce: Social media promos and reels with custom audio Jingles and ads for local businesses Independent music projects and concept albums On the practical side: I’ve mixed tracks, edited podcasts, and built audio for real clients and real campaigns, not just classroom exercises. I understand deadlines, revisions, and budgets — and I know your project isn’t “just content,” it’s your reputation. What It’s Like To Work With Me Clear, direct communication (no vague tech speak unless you want it) Honest feedback if something will help your project hit harder Organized file handling and labeled exports Reasonable turnaround times and open to revisions within scope If you’ve got: Vocals that need to sit right in the mix A podcast that needs to sound pro A video that needs music, impact, or cleaner audio …send me a message, tell me what you’re working on, and we’ll figure out the best way to make it sound like it should have in the first place.
