I'm a freelancing producer and sound engineer from Southern Illinois. I enjoy playing music with my wife and spending time outdoors whenever I have the chance. Professionally, however, I've been doing live sound in my area for four years, and studio work for five. I love live sound and the adrenaline fueled puzzle solving involved, but also really enjoy the freedom & creativity found in a studio context. Composition & writing, production, editing, and mixing are my favorite parts of the job. Every project requires intentional communication, and deserves efficient management. I'd love to help realize your visions in a tangible way, so contact me to get started!
