Recording

Much of my career as an audio engineer has been recording classical music, although I have since expanded to engineering, mixing and producing many different genres, including jazz, rock/pop, and electronic music. Below you will find a Spotify playlist of over 100 tracks that I have recorded, mixed, or produced. Below that, you will find a more thorough discography of some of my work with links to purchase or stream. Please email me if you would like information regarding rates and scheduling.

Live Sound

I have been a live sound engineer for twenty years, including two years in New York City where I worked weekly as Timothy Keller’s sound engineer at Redeemer Presbyterian Church (the largest church in Manhattan). In Dallas, I regularly worked as a sound engineer at Temple-Emanu-El (the largest synagogue in the south). While in North Texas, I was the sound engineer for the rock band Air Review, whose music was featured in Apple and Corona TV ads, and with whom I toured all over the country. In 2020, I moved to Seattle to accept a job as an Assistant Professor of Music Technology at Seattle Pacific University, where I taught live sound and other audio classes. Please contact me if you would like more information regarding rates and scheduling.
