What I'm looking for

I am looking for part-time opportunities in audio production to gain experience and support my studies.

I am a dedicated Sound Engineering student at the SAE Institute, where I am honing my skills in audio production. With a strong academic background, including five distinctions in my National Senior Certificate, I am committed to excellence in every task I undertake. My experience as a sound technician and DJ has equipped me with practical skills in live mixing, audio post-production, and customer service, allowing me to thrive in dynamic environments.

Throughout my journey, I have volunteered extensively, contributing over 1000 hours to various sound teams and events. This hands-on experience has not only sharpened my technical abilities but also fostered my leadership and teamwork skills. I am eager to apply my knowledge in real-world settings, and I am currently seeking part-time opportunities to support my studies while building a career in the audio industry.
