Creative Technologist. Experimental Artist. Multimedia Designer. Audio Specialist.
My work spans sound design, music, interactive media, game development, visual arts, robotics, and creative software. I've written & recorded nearly 30 solo and collaborative albums, produced and mixed with hundreds of musicians in both studio and live settings, and as a sound designer I've created immersive AR/VR/XR soundscapes for clients including Red Bull, Microsoft, Intel, Amazon, Motorola, Lenovo, San Diego Padres, The Glenlivet, and the Alzheimer's Association.
In interactive media I've built original Unity games, AI-powered tools, and Trinkets — an interactive portfolio you can explore as a 3D virtual museum. As an official member of Streamlit's Creator program, I'm recognized for designing autonomous AI solutions for game design, marketing, and video production.
I've done sound design for indie games, podcast editing and production, radio stingers for stations including WEMF, WMBR, WPKN, and NPR affiliates, live sound at dozens of venues across the country, and toured as a musician multiple times. I've also taught game design & generative AI, led live sound teams for outdoor concerts, developed afterschool music production curriculum, and hosted multiple radio shows.
