Turning the
Tables w/ Robin Roberts
I had the pleasure of mixing the 2nd season and It’s not your average round table talk show. “Turning the Tables” invites women from different backgrounds, ages, industries to have meaningful conversations and learn from one another. Robin Roberts has created a warm environment where the hard talks can be had. Watch the full season on Disney+.
Firebrand
A thrilling narrative short by director Rhett Bradbury, garnishing multiple film festival awards including Austin After Dark Film Festival ’23 - Best Dark Drama Film & San Francisco Arthouse Short Fest ’23 - Semi-Finalist. What if you confronted your inner demon and it confronted you back? Working in the horror genre was a first for me and I had a blast creating the sonic themes - creating a demon voice was a plus.
Check out the trailer and website for festival dates.

"Pop Pop" Canada
If you weren't in Canada watching The Super Bowl (Feb. 2020) you may have missed this fun spot. Check it out! I had a blast working with the team from Townhouse/Gramercy Park Studios on the 5.1 surround & stereo Sound Design and Mix.
My favorite part (and also the hardest element to pull off) was how the perspective switches from the grandparents in the closet to the grandson walking up the stairs. Group panning & compression automation - couldn't have done it without you.
A Dim Valley
Sound designing, Sound editing and Mixing this feature length narrative film, with fellow mixer Matt Baker, was no small feat. And I'm very proud to see/hear how everything came together to create a natural soundscape. Thanks to the whole cast & crew and director Brandon Colvin for trusting me with your vision. A Dim Valley is a funny, contemplative, and sometimes eerie film that I know you will enjoy.
