I'm an audio post-production specialist with hands-on experience in dialogue editing, sound design, podcast post-production, and instructional media. I hold a B.S. in Audio Post-Production from Full Sail University and blend deep audio-domain knowledge with practical software skills to ship high-quality work efficiently. I'm increasingly building AI-integrated workflows, developing Python/FastAPI tools, evaluating AI model outputs, and deploying lightweight web applications to streamline production pipelines. I thrive in both independent and collaborative environments, always prioritizing quality, scalability, and timely delivery as I relocate to New York.
