About

I am a mix engineer with expertise in classical music and acoustic genres. Equal parts engineer and classically trained musician, I enjoy combining my technical and musical skills to bring my clients' music to life. With over 100 mixing credits, all classical and acoustic-based projects, I'm a member of the Recording Academy's Producers and Engineers Wing and Owner of the Virginia studio River Rock Records. Since 2019, I've also been a frequent collaborator with Chicago-based, fellow AES member-owned classical recording companies Atlas Arts Media and Peckham Media Productions.

Why Am I An AES Member?

I'm an AES member because I love audio, and being an AES member allows me to keep up with all of the latest happenings across all audio-related fields. As a studio engineer in a rural area, it is invaluable to me how the AES offers opportunities to connect with other engineers and to give and receive mentorship.
