Why Work with Me

Not Just a Mixer — A Music-Minded Engineer

I bring a trained ear, a performance background, and an obsessive attention to detail.🎓 Music scholarship for Recording Technology + Voice
🎧 5/5 on the AP Music Theory exam
🧠 I use tempo-based FX design, and tonal mapping to make every element hit its pocket“I go Walter White on it.”

Example of a chart I drew up for an EDM client of the frequency distribution on his track to illustrate masking in the 900k - 1.2k range

Mixes that Translate

The most consistent feedback I get from artists is that their track sounds awesome everywhere.
