I am a freelance sound designer, editor and recording engineer based in Brighton, UK specialising in sound design for animation, crafting expressive, story-driven sound that brings animated worlds to life. I love building worlds from the ground up, using audio to enhance character, movement, and emotion. Alongside animation, I am also a skilled dialogue/ADR & SFX editor for live-action TV and film, where precision, consistency as well as creativity are key. Moving between these two disciplines allows me to approach every project with both originality and technical care. Whether designing from silence or refining recorded performances, my focus is always on clarity, character, and storytelling. Since 2011 I have split my time between the UK and Canada, working for studios in London, Toronto and Vancouver. I work remotely from a professional Pro Tools setup, with the flexibility to travel for on-site work when needed. I am conveniently located ~15 minute walk from Brighton station, making commuting to central London very straightforward. I hold dual UK and Irish citizenship, as well as Canadian permanent residency, allowing me to work freely across the UK, Europe, and Canada.
