I’m a Toronto-based music producer, composer, and audio engineer with over 30 years of experience crafting authentic, polished recordings. I work closely with artists to develop and realize their creative vision, guiding projects from concept through recording, production, and final mix to deliver release-ready results. I specialize in music production for albums and live performance, bringing a strong blend of musicality and technical expertise as both a pianist and producer to ensure each project is sonically refined and true to the artist’s intent. I also have extensive experience creating high-quality, story-driven audio for film, television, podcasts, and branded content. My post-production work includes dialogue editing, sound design, and original composition, with projects including long-running video series for Yamaha Canada Music and collaborations with international talent. I bring a collaborative, solutions-focused approach to every project and have also worked as a post-secondary professor and mentor in media programs.
