About

I am an audio professional with over 5 years in music production and 1.5 years dedicated to digital rights management at YouTube Music. Experienced in handling metadata, ownership, and copyright concerns using YouTube CMS, I maintain content quality by leveraging internal Google tools and resources. Detail-oriented and efficient, I thrive under high-volume tasks, with deep familiarity of the digital music landscape and distribution platforms. I have also worked extensively in sound design and audio post-production for various audio drama series and films.

My passion extends to sound cleanup, dialogue editing, and final mixing for films, including projects officially selected at film festivals. With a technical background and hands-on experience in audio engineering remotely and on-site, I continue to grow as a senior professional focusing on content quality and rights management in digital media ecosystems.
