Bio

After 6 years of experience in audio engineering, the one thing that keeps me inspired to write and design has always been meeting creatives across the country and bringing their vision to life. I've obtained an Audio Diploma from Center for Arts and Tech, a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Lethbridge and Certification to Operate Protools and Wwise. When I'm out of the studio, I am lucky enough to drive horses and relive heritage agriculture work. Or riding horses with the love of my life.

I can't wait to hear from you and see what we can do together!
