Spatial Audio Experience
I have extensive experience working with spatial audio, having had early access to Sony's groundbreaking 360 Reality Audio technology. My journey began with two immersive workshops at Sony's Culver City lot, where I explored the cutting-edge possibilities of creating in 3D sound. Building on that, I was one of a select few invited to participate in Sony's exclusive week-long Immersive Creator Experience in Topanga, CA. This writing camp was centered on crafting songs from the ground up in 3D space, pushing creative and technical boundaries to redefine how music can be experienced. These opportunities have shaped my expertise in designing immersive audio environments, blending technical precision with innovative artistry to elevate how audiences connect with sound.

AUDIO @
UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOLLYWOOD
I hold down a part-time job near my home at Universal Studios Hollywood, I work as an Audio Mixer. This position offers me flexibility and is somewhat at my convenience, allowing me to balance my responsibilities while pursuing my passion for music. My duties primarily involve running playback for live action performances with wireless touch screen iPads and controllers and managing audio, effects, and mixing for attractions in Super Nintendo World, Harry Potter, and other areas of the park. While there are additional duties involved, that gives you a basic idea of what I do in my role.
Strange Electronic
For over a decade, I've collaborated with Henry at Strange Electronic, where I've been involved in various projects for the playback community. My work includes helping develop new products for live show performances using Ableton software, building playback racks, creating tutorial videos, web design, curriculum development for Playback Engineering, and providing all-around support to the team. I also play a key role in beta testing new products to enhance their functionality.
Producers Social ®
Producers Social, a monthly event co-founded by myself in Los Angeles with Mark Kingsley in 2014, expanded with the addition of Stephan Walker and Luna Bree in 2016. For six years straight, without missing a month, we provided a platform for musicians to share their music in a stimulating and creative environment, specifically tailored for up-and-coming producers.
During the pandemic, the event paused, but we've since resumed and continue to host reunion events occasionally. Producers Social has grown significantly and is now hosted in five major cities worldwide. Our goal remains the same: to empower musicians and help them elevate their craft in any way we can.
