Summary
I am a music producer, recording engineer, live engineer, and mix engineer with over ten years of experience making records and running live shows. I have worked on over 13 albums and even more singles. As an artist myself, it is important to me to create an environment in which artists feel comfortable and heard, and to expand on their ideas to create the best recording or live show possible.
