About
I’m an experienced Audio Director and sound designer working across video games and feature film, with a strong focus on bringing creative audio visions to life through thoughtful direction, sound design, and production pipelines. I’ve led audio teams of all sizes, mentored sound designers and dialog professionals, and partnered closely with production, engineering, and QA to keep audio quality high and delivery on schedule.
My background includes extensive work at studios such as Respawn Entertainment, Tencent, and Gravity Well, as well as hands-on audio creation—from creature and ambient sound development to weapons, vehicles, UI, and large-scale destruction systems. I also bring field recording experience to capture authentic textures, and I’m passionate about building scalable audio assets (including Wwise-based pipelines) while maintaining a collaborative, respectful culture within the audio team.
