Sound Design

I have been working in sound for the past 20 years. Currently, I am 35 years old (math!). I have worked professionally as a sound designer, mixer + engineer at live events and in studio settings for 15 of those years. I've made ads with original animation and musical compositions, and I've released my own music on labels from around the globe, including the LA-based indie label "Brainfeeder" headed by Flying Lotus.

As a sound designer, animator, and empathetic human being, I subscribe to the idea that passion projects and personal projects alike are the only artifacts to truly gauge the history and mindset of a creator. I have written about the subject of sound design in UX, and I've made my personal projects available to you below this paragraph. Enjoy, be confused, or both! Laugh, even; the compositions below are completely original. I create the animations, edit the videos, produce, mix, master and implement all of the sound design and musical compositions. I also work every single day on animation and sound, so stay tuned as this page gets updated quite frequently.
