Mastering
I am classically trained on the violin, but I also play viola and cello on my projects to sculpt that lush string section sound. On top of that, I handle piano, percussion, electric/acoustic guitar and the bass myself.
For the instruments I don't personally play, I tap into my incredibly talented network of friends; clarinet, trumpet, french horn, trombone, accordion. If you need a noise, I know where to find it!
Human Touch
In today’s sea of AI-generated tracks and perfectly quantized MIDI, the human subtlety of breath stands out and I'm passionate about putting real instruments front and center. When the project calls for it, I'll layer in digital textures to create immersive soundscapes that combine expressive live dynamics with contemporary electronic elements.
Swift Collaboration
I prioritize clear, timely communication, ensuring we stay aligned at every step of the creative process.
Personalized Professionalism
I give every project, large or small, the same care and attention to detail I give my own work.
Because there are many variables when it comes to a project, it’s hard to give a number given the range of work I do. I work hard to tailor projects around a client’s budget and have many routes available to achieve their goals. As a freelancer, I’m able to offer specialty services, flexibility in schedules, and direct personal communication.
