I am a recording and mix engineer with expertise in classical music and acoustic genres. Equal parts engineer and classically trained musician, I am a gigging pianist and composer of music for orchestra, solo piano, and various chamber instrumentations. I graduated from Belmont University in 2017 with dual degrees in Audio Engineering Technology and Music Composition. Since 2019, I have served as Lead Engineer for Chicago-based Atlas Arts Media, for whom I mix classical albums and provide consulting for live recording projects. After living in Nashville and Chicago to attend school, I have relocated to my home state of Virginia where I run a small recording studio and offer remote mixing and mastering services.

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.
