I am a sound designer and composer for games with thirteen years experience.As a composer, my goal is to create a customized musical palette for each project and produce a score that adds value and emotional impact.
As a sound designer, I strive to design and implement an audio experience that provides vital player feedback, increases immersion, and enhances storytelling.
I am based in Austin Texas, but work with clients around the world. Comfortable either collaborating with a sound team or handling all sound work for a project, my experience includes five years in a senior sound designer role responsible for all sound work on various high quality games such as the MMO Crowfall, and five years in-house on the audio team at KingsIsle Entertainment - makers of the AAA family-friendly MMOs Wizard101 and Pirate101. Before moving to Austin, 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.

Quoc Tran – Nerdy LizardBobby and I worked together for several years on Crowfall and it was a genuine pleasure. Bobby was intensely committed to building a premium MMO soundscape on an incredibly tight budget and he did a stellar job. He was collaborative, flexible, and always delivered excellent audio on-time and on-target (a producer’s dream). If your project needs sound, your project needs Bobby.
