Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?

Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?

I'm here to support you. It's your music at the end of the day. Any flavour of mine will always be done to enhance the sound.

Q: What type of music do you usually work on?

A: Jazz Fusion, CCM, and Gospel

Q: Analog or digital and why?

A: Digital for the most part, digital for DAWs and plugins. Emulating hardware that represents analog hardware on any channel is a true advantage. However, I prefer analog workflow. I love being able to create an analog console in DAWs, which is why I use Luna. However, not all hardware is emulated, so an integration of it is still used. For Live, it would be Digital.

A: My promise is to do my best to bring the artist's vision to reality in the mix.

Q: What do you like most about your job?

A: I love being able to mix and achieve the sound the artist is going for. Getting the mix at the place where it’s a representative of what the artist is envisioning.

A: What’s the sound? Explain your vision to me.
