More about me
Music and audio have been a passion of mine from the very beginning. At age five, I began studying classical violin. For the next 15 years I slowly added clarinet, saxophone, and singing both in choir and musical theater to my list of studies. My freshman year of high school I was a boom operator on my very first independent short film. It never passed the editing phase (thank god) but it ignited a passion for audio production.

Pursuing this passion, I decided to attend Berklee College of Music on a ROTC scholarship where I intended to study Music Production and Engineering before commissioning as a Second Lieutenant in the United States Army. However, upon discovery that Berklee only had a few post-production audio courses, I made the decision to forgo my scholarship and transfer to Columbia College Chicago to pursue post-production audio full time.

At Columbia, I was fortunate enough to work on numerous student practicums, both on set as location sound mixer and in the studio, in a multitude of different roles such as re-recording mixer and dialogue editor. This past year, I was fortunate enough to join the team at FCB Chicago where I have been working as an Audio Associate.

After graduating a year early, I have decided to continue my education at Savannah College of Art and Design where I will be pursuing a MA in Sound Design as a graduate fellow. I look forward to collaborating with the film and video game students at SCAD while developing my personal skills. In the meantime, I am currently studying for the LSAT with the hopes of pursuing a Juris Doctor in the future.
