Hello, and thank you for visiting my website!

I am a recording engineer and producer based in Houston, TX, and have been involved in the Houston music community for the past 8 years. I have been a staff engineer at SugarHill Recording Studios since 2004, and have also served as Night Manager and Recital Manager at The Shepherd School of Music, Rice University since 2007. I am a member of NARAS (National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences) and AES (Audio Engineering Society). Making music and records are some of my greatest passions, and many of my clients are now good friends.

Throughout my career I have had opportunities to travel the country as a live Front-Of-House engineer, Mix Engineer/Producer, and as a performing musician (most notable performances: The Cake Shop in NYC with Row Zero, Bonnaroo Music & Arts Festival with Tyagaraja, The Maple Leaf in NOLA with Chase Hamblin). While making records is my favorite thing to do, my career has been very diverse so far and I absolutely love it!

When I’m not working, I enjoy reading books with my cat, Yorke, watching movies, eating at one of Houston’s many great restaurants, and catching shows from either great local bands or favorite touring acts. I also have a love of photography and enjoy making films for fun.

Thank you for stopping by, and please come back often to see updates of projects I’m working on and other interests that I want to share.

Cheers!
