About:
I’m an award-winning sound designer and mixer serving LA and NYC's video production, advertising and film communities. I craft high quality sonic content to enhance storytelling for ads, TV, film, social media and video games.
From recording VO to the final mix, I’ve worked on thousands of broadcast spots for networks like Nickelodeon, NBC, CNN, Comedy Central, Peacock, Paramount+, History, MTV and A&E. I’m an expert at sound design and mixing for advertising, animation and promos, and have contributed to numerous Emmy, ADDY, Clio, Telly and Promax winning campaigns over the years.
In the film and TV world, I have filled every role from Supervising Sound Editor to Re-recording Mixer, Dialog Editor, Foley Artist and ADR Recordist. I’ve spearheaded audio post for an Emmy award winning series, and over 100 feature films, documentaries, and shorts that have won accolades at major festivals like Tribeca, SXSW, Toronto and Cannes. When it comes to the technical details, I’m intimately familiar with the specs, deliverables and QC process for cinema, broadcast and all major streaming platforms.
On the web, my mixes for clients like The New York Times, VICE, Axios, Vox, Vsauce, Bustle, College Humor and HuffPost have collectively been heard by over a billion viewers. Whether it’s branded content, an animated explainer video or a digital short, I believe that quality is key and strive to make every piece I work on as cinematic and polished as possible. Several projects have become Shorts of the Week and Vimeo Staff Picks, won Webby Awards and gone viral.
I’m also an avid gamer and work with major game studios such as Riot Games, Electronic Arts and Gearbox Software. With the advent of Virtual Reality, 360 video, Dolby Atmos and DTS-X technology, I’ve been eager to jump into the fray and push the boundaries of immersion through the creative use of sound.
I come from a musical background, and have played in groups ranging from a jazz ensemble to a touring death metal band. Seeking a way to combine my love of music with my affinity for technology, I attended the Berklee College of Music in Boston and earned a bachelor’s degree in Electronic Production and Design in 2010.
I started my career in the fast-paced NYC advertising world at Oink Ink/Verbatim Studios in Times Square, and worked on national ad campaigns with clients like AT&T, Home Depot, CBS, Staples and Time Warner. To expand my skill-set, I moved around the corner to HOThead Studios where I spent several years as a Sound Designer, Mixer and Composer primarily for Viacom/CBS/Paramount networks. Ready to strike out on my own, I moved to LA where I founded Avalanche Audio Post and currently work from my own fully equipped Pro Tools studio in Sherman Oaks.
