About

As an internationally experienced engineer and designer for multiple facets of media, I bring a diverse skillset gained across the globe. I’ve started my career in vibrant multicultural hubs like Dubai and Abu Dhabi and now, based in Malaysia, I continue to work with international teams, specializing in audio quality control, sound design, and voice-over artistry. My passion lies in enhancing workflows and delivering excellence while embracing different cultures and perspectives.

I specialize in Pro Tools 2024 editing and mixing, Izotope RX audio repair, and creative sound design across various DAWs. I thrive in multicultural environments, working on large-scale projects such as Disney Plus, HBO MAX, Netflix, and Crunchyroll. I’m always eager to learn, adapt, and contribute remotely or onsite, especially aligning with American time zones for global collaboration.
