About me

Professional audio recording is my career. I’m a sound mixer for film and TV, trained and employed in the Greater Toronto Area. I took up the Toronto Film School in 2016 and started making a name for myself before having even graduated in 2018, by in large thanks to my professors and working with the Canadian Film Center, exposing myself to higher-end pros. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working in commercial projects, as well as cementing myself in some half-dozen feature films, atop a plethora of short films and web series. Before leaving, I was in the middle of my paperwork to become a permittee with my local technician’s union, NABET.

A couple of years ago, with the recent World events, I took a step back from set-life to reevaluate what I’d like as a work-life balance. Toronto has been very good to me, but I’d rather something closer to family, with a fixed schedule. So I slowed down, and took up work at a local Tim Hortons in Vankleek Hill for a year, and remained as a post audio editor for a long time friend’s production company, which made for great times and easy work, but I’ve been finding myself itching. I have a passion for technical installations and want to be challenged by it again. I miss the reward of collaborating to achieve a setup quickly, and effectively. Out of the box, I come in disciplined for large or small scaled projects alike. I take pride in my ethic and ability to work with others under extreme pressure. I live and breathe meeting delivery formats, deadlines, and expectations in its content. My focus is the client’s needs; I believe in solutions that will last and work from the get-go.
