About

Sound Recordist • Podcast Producer • Audio Consultant

I help filmmakers, podcasters and creators shape the sound of their projects — from idea to final mix.

With 25+ years of experience in documentary filmmaking and sound recording, I bring both technical expertise and a strong narrative approach to sound.

What I do:

Field recording (documentary, podcast, film)
Podcast production (recording, editing, narrative structure)
Sound editing & mixing
Sound design for film and experimental projects
Audio storytelling & narrative consulting
Mentoring & coaching (sound workflow, writing with sound, listening approach)

I’ve worked as a sound recordist in fiction films before focusing on documentary and more immersive, human-centered storytelling.

My work explores the relationship between listening, place and storytelling, through films, radio pieces and sound installations.

What makes me different:
I don’t just “do sound” — I help you think your project through sound.
