Available to hire
I’m an experienced TV audio engineer and studio builder with a hands-on approach to FOH, A1, and recording work. Over the years I’ve mixed live and broadcast shows, designed and wired control rooms, and led studio builds from concept to ready-for-service. I stay calm under deadline pressure and pride myself on delivering clear, musical sound for both on-air and in-studio productions.
I love combining technical know-how with creative problem-solving—whether it’s integrating a complex comms system for a live news segment, or crafting a warm, accurate recording environment in a new studio. My work spans major networks, touring acts, and boutique rooms, always with a focus on reliability, acoustics, and great-sounding results.
