I'm an audio engineer and music producer based in Birmingham, with a First Class Honours degree in Electronic Music Production. I specialise in recording, mixing and mastering, with a strong focus on getting the best out of artists in the studio and making sure the final sound holds up across every format and platform. Alongside studio work, I have three years of professional experience in live sound — touring across the UK, working at major venues, and running my own live events company — which means I bring a practical, real-world ear to everything I produce. I understand how music is experienced live as well as through speakers and headphones, and that shapes every mix decision I make. I also hold ABRSM Grade 8 Piano, so I come to production with genuine musical understanding, not just technical skill. I work closely with artists throughout the process, from tracking through to the final master, and I'm currently working with a solo artist on an EP — handling the full chain from recording to mastering. If you want to talk about your project, get in touch.
