I am an award-winning sound designer, recording and mixing engineer, music producer and multi-instrumentalist with over 15 years of experience. I founded Pontiaq and Room2 Studio, where I strive to give each project clarity, depth and narrative through sound. My work spans sound design, dialogue editing, audio restoration and final mixing for film, advertising and digital media, and I’ve partnered with brands such as Samsung, EasyJet, IKEA, Parfois, Maxmat and the Government of Portugal. As a composer, my music has featured in Curtas Vila do Conde, Caminhos do Cinema Português, Vista Curta, Porto/Post/Doc and the Iberian Film Festival, where I won Best Original Music and Best Composer Award from CCP. Beyond the studio, I tour internationally as a guitarist, drummer and vocalist, and release music under my solo project Niki Moss.
