What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive audio expertise while fostering creativity and collaboration in a dynamic environment.

I am an Audio Mixer and Editor with over 20 years of experience in the TV, Film, Music, and Game-Audio industries. My expertise includes recording and mixing in various multichannel audio formats, including 5.1, 7.1, ATMOS, and VR. I have developed and deployed a bespoke Azure cloud-based semantic search engine for journalists and researchers, showcasing my technical skills alongside my creative talents.

Throughout my career, I have worked with major broadcasters such as BBC, ITV, and SKY, ensuring high-quality audio production for a range of projects. I am proficient in operating ISDN, Source Connect, and various remote recording solutions, and I have a strong background in sound design, music mixing, and voiceover recording. My experience as a lecturer in Film and TV Post Production further demonstrates my commitment to sharing knowledge and fostering talent in the industry.

I am a team player who thrives in collaborative environments but can also work independently to ensure timely and professional delivery of projects. My technical proficiency extends to building and repairing both Mac and PC systems, making me a versatile asset in any audio production setting.
