Available to hire
I’m a creative independent musician and sound designer who thrives on creating immersive auditory worlds. I design sound for short films, interactive media and social media, collaborating with directors, developers and creators to sonically express their narratives. In my personal time I also produce my own music.
With a passion for atmospheric soundscaping and competence across various media and channel formats, I feel I could be a fruitful addition to your team and give your film the sound it deserves.
