PORTFOLIO: grahamschijf.com I have a BS in Audio Production and have been working professionally since 2017. I started my career working for a local news station and quickly gained the experience needed to land a job at a production house. In this role I was taught the ins and outs of Post Production workflows. I started as a Logger, worked my way up to Assistant Editor and eventually Post Sound Mixer. I was responsible for mixing and sending deliverables out for episodic network TV. After 5 years, I decided to go freelance.
