Summary
From orchestrating rap gigs for the disabled to scoring and mixing films in New York, I know what I am now. I'm dedicated to the science of sonic expression in all its forms, experienced in both analog and digital audio devices to paint concepts into fruition. Specializing in the organization and management of collaborative works, I've demonstrated a wide range of ample capabilities that fulfill the roles needed to create a successful team. Nothing kindles my fire of passion more than the authentic decoration of time, it's how I know what I will be in the future.
