Hi, I’m Kate Siefker, founder and lead audio engineer at Future Babe, a Philadelphia-based sound studio that creates musical scores, sound design, and mixes for commercials, documentaries, video games, podcasts, and more. I’ve worked with clients such as National Geographic, Vox Media, and Lemonada Media to craft immersive, expressive soundtracks and sonic identities. Previously I served as a Music Supervisor at Black Math and as a Mastering Engineer at Mahern Audio. I love collaborating with filmmakers, game developers, and creators to bring sound to life, and I’m active in education through partnerships with SoundGirls and Soundial to share skills and passion for audio engineering.
