Hey there! I’m a long-time music producer, audio engineer, and instrumentalist with 20 years of experience in studio recording and project coordination. By day, I’ve worked with countless local artists as a staff engineer, and have had the chance to work with international on a joint soundtrack venture in 2020, exploring different electronic textures and emerging recording technologies. By night, I maintain local residencies DJing and producing as speck slim. There I let 25 years of turntable technique and classical music theory training keep dance floors packed all around the Washington CC metropolitan area. No matter the time of day, I am always prepared to handle any myriad of creative projects from the studio to the stage and so back round again.
