Sound & Systems

Audio,
and the systems
that run it.

I work where audio meets infrastructure — designing sound and building the systems that deliver it reliably at scale.

About

I work where audio meets infrastructure — designing sound and building the systems that deliver it reliably at scale. My background spans interactive audio and UX sound design for products used by millions, and self-hosted, agent-first pipelines that automate production without giving up correctness or control. Whether the question is how something should sound or how the signal, tooling, and delivery hold together, I've usually worked both ends of it.
