Music Producer, Sound Engineer

Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?

A: One of my proudest moments as a producer was on a track called "Loose Lips Sink Ships," which I produced for my friend Becko. During one of his live performances, Mike Shinoda, lead singer of Linkin Park, commented on the song, calling it "a hit, a really well-produced track." Hearing that from an artist I've admired for years gave me the push to keep making music every single day.
