About me
In 2020, I trained as a Location Sound Recordist at NFTS. I’m excited by stories and how you can use sound to move the listener. I work as a Location Sound Recordist and Post-Production Sound Mixer. I am unilaterally deaf and have found this brings a high level of focus and a unique perspective to my sound work.My first boom operator role was on ‘The Hoist’, for which I also provided the post-production sound. I have subsequently worked with that director on ‘The Kindness of Strangers...’. I have been location sound recordist on actors’ showreels & have recently completed recording short films ‘My King’ & ‘Last Day’ (a film centred around the last day of pupils at a special education college, staring actors with learning difficulties).
Previously I trained as an actor at LAMDA. Since graduating I’ve recorded and edited V/Os (examples include Netflix, Spotify, Johnnie Walker, TomTom & Mercedes-Benz) and Audiobooks (including Warren Adler’s Target Churchill.
