Audio and Music producer with a strong background in events and live music high level of education. I've been steering my career into post production and studio projects over the past few months, where my true skills and passion lie. Let's make sounds together!
I am formally trained in Audio Production, Engineering, Acoustics, Live Sound and Event Management. Self-taught in the field of lighting design, video production, audio electronics, music (solid theoretic knowledge and able to play fairly complicated parts).
As an instrumentalist, I can play poly rhythms, syncopated grooves, rock, pop and metal beats on a drum set with relative ease. Vocals are on my strong side, too: harmonies, soft singing, falsetto, harsh metal screaming, chest and head voice are all techniques I can perform. As a guitarist, bassist and keyboardist, my skills are good enough to record more basic songs.
As a live sound operator, I've been involved in events of all kinds and sizes: festivals, dance recitals, all sorts of corporate meetings, parties, graduation ceremonies, trade shows, small concerts and talent contests, you name it.
On the language side, I am portuguese/english bilingual and can communicate in Spanish on an advanced level.
