Hi There, I’m

VO Talent | Audio Producer | Comedy Creator
About Me
I'm a NYC based creative with a wide variety of production skills and a background in Improv & Sketch Comedy. I've worked in professional recording studios all over New York and in 2021 I became the Head Engineer and Studio Manager for Mirrortone Studios in Midtown Manhattan. For clients, I work on music of all genres, commercials, branded social media content, podcasts, and audio post-production for film & tv.
​
For myself, I produce comedy albums, web series, and host a podcast about Improv Comedy as the Director of Educational content for The Improv Network. Having produced projects in both professional recording studios and out of my own apartment I'm attuned to industry standards as well as the scrappiness of DIY.
​
My favorite book is The Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnegut Jr. And my favorite quote from the book is "The crowd, having been promised nothing, felt cheated, having received nothing."
​
My all-time favorite TV show is The Simpsons (by which I mean the first 10 seasons damn near raised me but I keep forgetting there's like 400 episodes I've NEVER seen and probably never will because I'm a purist and real fans choose to believe the majority of the series just doesn't exist).
​
My favorite band is The Smashing Pumpkins. It's been a bumpy road but totally worth it, thank you.
But enough about me. What's new with you?
