About

Audio/music editor working in Ableton Live with a template-based workflow (bussed dialogue/SFX/music, drum and midrange instrument busses, loudness checks) to deliver consistent mixes quickly. Emphasizes musical storytelling techniques like tempo-less scoring with intentional silence and uses reverb throws to make seamless transitions, while treating SFX as in-key, tempo-aligned instruments for cohesive longform/YouTube-style edits.
