I am a sound designer and composer for games with sixteen years experience.
I am based in Raleigh NC and am currently looking for opportunities. Most recently I was a Senior Sound Designer for Firewalk Studios, a first-party Sony studio. Before joining Firewalk in 2022, I was a freelance senior sound designer and composer responsible for all audio work on various high quality games such as the MMO Crowfall and the fighting game Fantasy Strike. Before that freelance phase, I spent five years in-house on the audio team at Kingsisle Entertainment in Austin TX - makers of the AAA family-friendly MMOs Wizard101 and Pirate101. Before moving to Austin to start my gaming career, I lived in the mountains of beautiful Virginia, where I earned a Bachelor of Music degree in 2007 from the James Madison University School of Music.
