I’m an experienced freelance sound professional, predominantly working in Post Production, editing sound for television and film clients.

My work has been for Drama, Documentary, Animation and Comedy projects (both commissioned and entirely independently produced).

I’ve worked on productions for the BBC, Channel 4, National Geographic, PBS, 20th Century Fox, SKY, UKTV, Netflix and Vimeo Originals amongst others.

I’m a full member of The Association of Motion Picture Sound (AMPS) and a BAFTA Crew member.

I’m based in London and am able to work entirely remotely if required from my project studio. For complex projects I often work in tandem with other well respected audio professionals and studios.

I also undertake recording, mixing work and write / host workshops on the subject of sound.

In addition to T.V. and film projects I have produced or recorded audio for narration purposes, podcasts, interviews, presentations, music productions, title sequences, trailers, theatre, standup comedy and art installations.

I would like to think I approach my work in innovative, efficient and flexible ways to suit the productions I work for.
