About

I’m an audio and AV technician who thrives when the stakes are high—keeping live shows, studio sessions, and film sets running smoothly with fast diagnosis and clear communication. I’ve supported 180+ events, from major concerts and sporting shows to multi-artist studio recordings, and I’m comfortable handling everything from signal flow and cabling to console support, livestreaming, and equipment troubleshooting.

On set, I also bring hands-on lighting and grip experience, helping teams stay safe and on schedule while maintaining strong presentation standards. When artists need help, I coach with patience—whether that’s setting up mics and interfaces, fixing DAW or connectivity issues mid-session, or training others so the whole room feels confident and ready to go.
