✓ 10 years of Audio Editing, Restoration, Sound Design, Sound Mixing ✓ Expert use of Pro Tools + industry plugins (FabFilter, iZotope) ✓ 3 years at Pixar Animation Studios (Inside Out 2) I'm a post-production sound designer and mixer with 10 years of experience and a passion for enhancing the storytelling experience through immersive audio. My career began in music, where I caught the attention of Grammy Award-winning producer and hip-hop historian 9th Wonder and collaborated on multiple albums under his record label, Jamla. I later joined the Music and Sound Editorial team at Pixar Animation Studios, where I contributed to a variety of animated shorts, series, documentaries, and feature films and helped to shape the character "Anxiety" in Pixar's 2024 Oscar Award-nominated feature Inside Out 2. I recently edited and mixed Last of the Lions: An African American Journey in Memoir, an audiobook written and narrated by Clarence B.

Every great project begins with a sound — an idea, a feeling, a vision waiting to be heard. Whether you're building a brand, bringing a creative project to life, or transforming a passion into something more, the sound you choose to tell your story can make all the difference. I'm ready to help you amplify your message, engage your audience, and elevate your project to its fullest potential.
