Hi, I’m Kelly Vandever, a supervising sound designer, editor, and re-recording mixer based in Alameda, California. With over 25 years in audio post production, I’ve built a career across film, television, video games, podcasts, and audiobooks, delivering immersive soundscapes, precise dialogue editing, and high-energy mixing for action sports and entertainment projects.
I’ve worked on more than 400 titles (300+ listed on IMDB) and am proficient in Pro Tools, Reaper, Ardour, and Adobe tools, with hands-on experience across SFX, foley, ADR, music editing, and localization. I enjoy collaborating with teams worldwide and bringing bold sonic ideas to life.
