About Me

I am looking for bands and artists who want to record and have their songs mixed. Please contact me if you are interested in having me record or mix your material at a professional studio.I came to Sony Music Studios after attending Berklee College of Music from 1992-1996. After joining Sony Studios, I have had the chance to work with some of the most talented and influential artists, producers and engineers in the music business in styles ranging from rock to rap to jazz and classical. While at Berklee, I was enrolled in the Music Production and Engineering program and played electric bass in many ensembles and bands. I was also taught music theory and history.
