About Me.
I help to tell the stories that connect us to our surroundings, through high quality audio production.With a background in campaigning, news media and music production, I think about the world from both material and creative perspectives. Marrying these worlds is really where my skill lies: I can dig deep to get to the heart of an issue, then translate that for an audience using high quality audio-post production.
Through immersive sound-design, I enjoy world building; creating those conduits which shift narratives from words on a page to stories in your head.My last employed position was as head of audio at The Bristol Cable; developing new shows, training staff, building & managing production schedules and above all, creating a signature audio style and identity.I am currently pursuing multiple freelance projects, and exploring the immersive arts.I’m detailed, reliable, easy to work with and have a keen ear for engaging audio.Lets talk!
