I mix and master music for singer‑songwriters, non-profits, and clients of all kinds. My mixes are warm, clear, and emotionally true to the artist. Pro Tools certified, but I mostly work in Logic Pro or Luna Pro. Based in Denver. Working remotely with artists everywhere. The bulk of my work is with the non-profit, Purple Songs Can Fly (Houston). My wife, Tricia Fox, and I collaborated with Purple Songs Can Fly to launch “Bring Melodies to Life,” a remote songwriting program for families in Texas Children’s Hospital’s bone marrow transplant unit. We’ve crafted 50+ songs - writing, recording, mixing, and mastering with care. We don’t share these publicly to protect privacy, but I can provide limited samples on request. I’ve spent 20+ years on stage and in studios across Texas and Colorado - solo sets, guest guitarist, full bands. My debut album, “Safe From the Day,” dropped in 2008. I’ve released singles and appeared on several albums since. In 2025, I stepped away from a 15‑year tech product management career (Apple, Earbuds, Splice, Smartsheet) to focus on audio full‑time. These days I’m in the studio, at gigs around Denver, or at home with my wife, two kids, and a golden doodle who insists on supervising all projects. Ready to hear your song at its best? Let’s setup a discovery call. I can share a free mix/master sample of one of your tracks within 3 business days so you can be sure you want to work with me.
