Hi, I’m Samuel Cowen.

About

Hi, I’m Samuel Cowen. I’m an audio engineer and mixing engineer based in Brisbane, and I own Zenpony Studios where I focus on music production, mixing, and mastering for a diverse roster of local and international artists. I handle client liaison, invoicing, marketing, and day-to-day studio operations to keep the creative work flowing smoothly.

Outside the studio, I’ve led teams in disability employment as a Branch Manager and worked as an Employment Consultant, developing skills in compliance, training, and client support. I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor of Audio Engineering and Music Production at JMC Academy, with an expected graduation in 2026, and I’m excited to keep growing both my technical skills and my leadership capabilities.
