Dustin is a Webby nominated podcast producer for his work on Defy Dementia -- a podcast for anyone with a brain. This 2024 nomination was in the health, wellness, and lifestyle category. He self-assigned the job title 'Mayor of the Mic' shortly after his 2018 independent candidacy for Mayor of Washington, D.C. During his run for Mayor, he struggled to amplify his decade-plus of volunteer work teaching entrepreneurship to low income youth. If he were to ever run again, he knew that he'd need an amplification system to spread the good word of his work. Since then, he has built PodTechs.com as a global podcast production and promotion company that has produced thousands of hours of podcast content and marketing campaigns.

🎵 Music Production 🎧 I started producing music over three years ago, and since then, it’s become a big part of who I am. My sound mainly leans toward lofi—soft, dreamy, and emotional beats that help people feel calm, focused, or just a little more at peace. I love the vibe that lofi brings, and I put a lot of effort into making each track feel warm and authentic. I use Ableton Live as my main DAW (Digital Audio Workstation), and I also play instruments like the MIDI keyboard and drums to add a real, human feel to my productions. Every project is an opportunity to experiment and grow, and I enjoy collaborating with people who need original music for their videos, podcasts, games, or personal projects. Music is more than just sound to me—it’s a way to tell stories, express emotion, and create something meaningful. Whether you’re looking for a custom beat, background music, or someone to handle mixing and mastering, I’d love to be part of your creative process. 🏀 NBA Scriptwriting 📝 When I’m not producing music, I dive into another passion of mine: NBA storytelling. As someone who’s loved basketball for as long as I can remember, writing scripts for NBA-related content is something that feels natural to me. I’ve worked on scripts that cover player profiles, game breakdowns, and deep-dive narratives for YouTube creators and sports content channels. I focus on making the stories not only informative but also emotional and relatable—so fans can connect with the players and the game on a deeper level. Writing these scripts has helped me grow as a storyteller, sharpening my research and writing skills while also allowing me to share my love for the game with others. It’s a creative outlet that balances perfectly with my work in music. If you're in need of original music, sound design, or engaging NBA scripts, I’m here to help. Let’s connect, collaborate, and bring your ideas to life. —Miguel
