Seasoned audio engineer and producer focused on clean, impactful sound.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned audio engineer, music producer, and founder of E3 Publishing Co., with over a decade of hands-on experience in audio editing, mixing, mastering, sound design, vocal tuning, and audio restoration.
I have worked with industry-leading artists and media companies, delivering industry-standard audio quality for music, podcasts, and multimedia projects while leveraging advanced techniques and AI-powered solutions.
At xAI I processed large conversational datasets for Grok voice-model training, producing publication-grade vocal stems and reducing downstream transcription errors. I also maintain an active freelance practice on Upwork and run E3 Publishing Co., contributing to projects like an Emmy-nominated documentary and film sound credits.
I prioritize clarity, fidelity, and practical collaboration with engineers, ML researchers, and clients to meet strict production and AI-training specifications, while continuously adopting modern DAWs, restoration tools, and AI-driven workflows.
