Hello! I’m Jordan Friedland, an audio professional focused on restoration, digitization, and high-quality sound for video and archival projects. I enjoy solving tricky acoustics problems, cleaning up noise, and delivering clean, exhibit-ready audio that preserves the integrity of the material. Over the years I’ve led small teams, digitized vast collections for cultural institutions, and supported live and online events with reliable AV setup and on-the-fly problem solving. I recently began doing freelance sound restoration on evidence for legal clients, attracting customers entirely through word of mouth. I thrive when collaborating with artists, educators, and clients to meet tight specs and bring projects to life with clarity and care.
