Passion

Perhaps the most transformative chapter in my career came with the opportunity to work alongside music icon Madonna – Celebration World Tour. A chance encounter at Madison Square Garden while mixing Post Malone, Twelve Carrat tour, set the stage for a collaboration that would push me to new heights, both creatively and professionally. After years of being the front-of-house audio engineer for NAS, HER, GEAZY, Big Sean, Miguel, Bryson Tiller, and PND, I eventually found myself at the helm of one of the largest stand alone concert audiences in history, 1.6 million in attendance – Brazil mixing Madonna, a moment that underscored the culmination of years of hard work and dedication.

My journey into the world of sound engineering is nothing short of a musical odyssey. Growing up in New York City, surrounded by the diverse soundscape that the city has to offer, my early introduction to music through church laid the foundation for what would become a lifelong passion. From tinkering with microphones and amplifiers as a child to eventually stepping behind the console of my first live show, my trajectory in the industry has been marked by dedication, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to my craft.

As I reflect on this remarkable journey, I offers a word of advice to aspiring sound engineers: “First thing is, you have to love it… And if you have a skill, your responsibility is to be committed to building that skill. I’m a firm believer that when you are trained for a task, eventually the opportunity comes to show off your ability—I’m a living proof example of that!”

Design
I currently use EASE jr, EASE Focus, MAPP3D and
Sound Vision to design audio systems to be used in venues and tours.

System Tuning
SMAART LIVE 9 – I tune to a tried and true customized target curve for optimal live PA balance.

Building the mix
I use recorded Multitracks via Pro Tools, Logic ProX and reference monitors by M&K Miller Krisel along with Audeze LCD 5 and MM500 to build mixes.
