About Me

I create sound design and original music for commercials, brand animations, documentaries, podcasts and art installations. Most of my projects come through animation and production studios, where I handle the full audio: from the first sound sketches to the final mix.

Before audio, I spent years as an IT project manager. That means clear timelines, organised revisions and deliverables in the right formats the first time, so your producer doesn't have to chase me.

I also co-founded Radio Plato, a community radio station, which keeps me close to the experimental side of sound, from tuning broadcast chains to building believable ambiences.

When I'm not working on a project, I'm probably experimenting with new plug-ins, synths and recording techniques.

Sound effects, atmospheres and transitions synced to picture for commercials, social ads and brand animations. You get the final mix for web, social, TV or stadium screens, plus stems.

How I Work

  1. 01

    Brief

    Send me the picture or a rough cut, a few references and the deadline. Within one business day I come back with questions, a fixed quote and a timeline.

  2. 02

    First sketch

    Early on you get a sound sketch or a music direction for the key moments, so we agree on the feel before I build out the whole piece.

  3. 03

    Production & revisions

    I build the full sound and music to picture. Two rounds of revisions are included: send one list per round with timecodes and I handle the rest.

  4. 04

    Delivery

    Final mix to your platform's loudness spec (web, social, broadcast or cinema), plus stems and cut-downs, named and in the formats your editor needs.
