My passion and love for production sound has afforded me spectacular opportunities and adventures over the years. From the wilderness bush country of Zimbabwe to the majestic temples of Kyoto, Japan, I’ve been blessed to walk in many of life’s shoes. I am often asked what my favorite location or story was. This is a very difficult question to answer…. Perhaps, its simply…. The next one.
I have been a boom operator and production sound mixer since 2006 and have traveled to over 22 Countries. I have a complete Sync Sound kit based on the SD 688 and wisycom wireless systems. I can handle a feature film down to a documentary.

I am able to operate playback, sound reinforcement, send video assist feeds, and conquer just about any other on-set sound situation, all with a positive attitude. I have worked on productions throughout North America, South America, Europe, North Africa, Antarctica, the Caribbean and I’ve been out to sea on Oil Rigs, Container Ships and Tug Boats, on the flight decks of US Navy Aircraft Carriers and Submarines.
