About
Since 2001, I’ve mastered audio for an eclectic range of projects. My work includes multiple Billboard #1 and Top 10 charting songs, GRAMMY® Award-winning artists, and over 700 million streaming plays from more than 63 different countries. I am proud of the trust I’ve earned from the producers, mix engineers, artists, and labels I’ve worked with along the way.
My path with music and sound is uniquely colored by the phenomenon of synesthesia. Specifically, I experience chromesthesia, a state where auditory stimuli manifests itself as colors, shapes, and movement. This sensory perception is interwoven with my passion for music and technology, feeding a nuanced exploration of the marriage between artistry and analysis in every record.
For over 12 years, I ran Mobtown Studios, an award-winning Baltimore recording studio which I co-founded. I then pivoted to focus solely on mastering, designing and building a dedicated mastering studio in 2018.
In 2023, I co-created the Speaks Volumes podcast with mastering engineer, Dan Coutant. We talk about supporting our fellow engineers, work/life balance, and maintaining good mental health in a stressful and competitive industry.
I occasionally work with iZotope / Native Instruments and Steinberg (WaveLab Pro) on their software development. I’ve previously worked with Warner Bros. Records, Discovery Channel, The Kennedy Center, and DC101-FM.

When not working in music, I love making egg creams and listening to Prince.
