I’m a New York-based audio engineer and pianist with an M.A. in Music Technology (4.0 GPA). My background is a mix of high-level performance and technical production—everything from recording on the Latin Grammy-winning album Viviré to sound design and scoring for video games. I’m highly proficient in Pro Tools and Reaper, often using Python and ReaScript to automate workflows and speed up delivery. Being native bilingual in English and Spanish allows me to handle session direction and technical communication for international projects easily. Whether I’m composing, engineering, or managing a session, I focus on keeping things musically sound and technically efficient.
