Available to hire
Hi, I’m Yan Shi, also known as Sara. I am a China-based audio engineer with over a decade of experience designing audio systems, installing studios, and delivering live sound for events. I’ve built recording environments, broadcast studios, and OB vans, and I enjoy turning complex hardware and software into reliable, high-quality sound solutions.
I love teaching and sharing knowledge—training Sequoia users, supporting distributors, and translating technical material. When I’m not engineering, I’m playing with sound, improving my German, and exploring new creative collaborations in the music and media industry.
