Passionate singer-songwriter, producer, and mix/mastering engineer based in Brooklyn, NY. Over the past fifteen years, I've gained experience in all facets of music — from operating a DIY venue and touring, to self-producing an album and various singles, to performing in studio sessions. I specialize in developing unique, emotionally effective sounds and in helping artists bring their vision to life while staying on deadline and under budget. When I'm not producing or mixing tracks, I am almost always writing music. In turn, I bring a deep understanding of the artists perspective to any project I work on--whether that be as an engineer, producer, or writer. I will make a genuine effort to understand your intention so that I can make it my own, leveraging every detail in order to create a product that fulfills its purpose. I also enjoy running shows, booking artists, and connecting with audiences. Music is my driving passion, so I am always excited to collaborate and create, and I take every chance I get to learn something new about the art and the craft.

    uniE603 The Pumpkin Song - Shy Holly
    First single from the ongoing Shy Holly project. I wrote, performed, produced, mixed, and mastered this track. I also co-ordinated a small release campaign on social media and commissioned visual artists for both the cover art and for promotional videos, which featured re-mixes of the track. This track shows how much can be done with very little. Without a budget, studio access, and under a two-week time constraint, I was able to take this track from demo to release-ready using only a Scarlett 2i2, an SM57, and an AT2020. music master production mixing songwriting
