About

My love of audio began early. When I was 12, I was lucky enough to observe tracking sessions in Todd Hobin's studio, and before I was 14, the folks at the studio somehow trusted me behind the console recording projects for my friends. While in high school, I produced over a dozen projects for local artists, and after leaving for New York City to study Music Technology & Computer Science at NYU, I continued working on everything I could. By the time I turned 20, I had produced 3 SAMMY-Nominated projects. The album I produced and co-wrote with Stephen Phillips, "big eyes & rosy cheeks", earned a "Best Pop Recording" and Stephen took home the Brian Bourke Award for Best New Artist. I've been incredibly lucky to meet amazing mentors and friends every step of the way as I balanced classes at NYU, gigs in two cities 230 miles apart, and studio internships.

Recently, in March 2020, I designed and implemented an audio-over-IP solution to allow WNYU89.1FM to broadcast remotely during the NYC COVID-19 closures. I faced a handful of challenges on that project, borrowing the AoIP hardware from Sirius XM, dealing with NYU’s strict firewall around the internal network, and avoiding dreaded “dead air” while setting these systems up. And as of June 2020, I have starting working in the technical department of a local theatre, The RedHouse Arts Center, using lighting and sound design to help present stories on stage, then deploying multi-camera live streams to present it to virtual audiences. My latest challenge and exciting venture, has been exploring Dolby ATMOS technology. I was recently brought on to mix a film, and dove into the world ATMOS and its capabilities- and I hope to next explore it’s capabilities mixing music.

When I'm not working with audio, I design lighting for theatre. I've designed over 20 musicals, with a portfolio of high school, community, regional, and off-broadway shows.

At my core, I aim to solve problems for artists. I'm extremely project oriented; I prefer to start a project with an artists first ideas, and finally let go when the audinces love it. I believe that magical projects come from a dedicated team, and the moments I get to spend forming relationships with artists are the best part of what I do.
