      <image:title>About - About Me</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’m an Atlanta-based engineer, mixer, and sound designer with over a decade of experience in professional audio. In that time, I have worked in recording studios, composed for film projects, worked as a sound designer for video games and trailers, and toured the U.S. and Europe as a signed recording artist/songwriter. My interest in audio started when I was just a teenager wanting to learn how to record my own band. I sought out multiple internships and had the fortune of landing one at Southern Tracks in Atlanta, GA where I had the opportunity to learn from legendary engineers and recording artists, as well as earn my first album credits assisting on albums for Mastodon, Sugarland, Cut Copy, and more. The studio eventually closed, but I’ve been freelancing as an engineer and mixer ever since. I have opened stages for artists like Bush, Slayer, Good Charlotte, Thursday, Warpaint, The Sword, Red Fang, Manchester Orchestra, and Portugal the Man and been featured in publications like Rolling Stone and Kerrang. I love contributing to anything creative and hope to elevate everything I get to work on. I’ve worked on a huge range of releases, from big to small, self to label funded, metal to jazz, and everything in between. If you’re passionate about your project, I would love to be a part of it.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Pricing - Recording</image:title>
      <image:caption>It all begins with the mindful tracking of your performances. Every recording session is unique to the artist and needs of the project. In this stage, your music will be recorded and edited to later be mixed by myself or another engineer of your choice. Depending on budget and needs, there are many different options and possibilities to consider, such as working from my place or another studio, renting specific gear, etc. Get in touch for a quote!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Pricing - Mixing</image:title>
      <image:caption>Mixing plays a crucial part in the making of recorded music. It can change everything about how a song comes across. Once a song is recorded, mixing is the act of adjusting levels, eqs, effects, and so on to give the song its sonic character. I mix in unattended sessions, so if you are outside Atlanta or had another engineer record your music and wish to have your song mixed by me, it’s possible by sending me Pro Tools sessions or wav files.
