Having travelled worldwide as a Sound Recordist, I am a practical, resourceful, and adaptable member of any team. Used to the rigors of travel and shooting in Extreme Environments, adapting quickly to the situation, and solving unforeseen challenges I can always get good sound
I am specialised in location sound recording and mixing; managing radio frequencies, multiple mics, Stereo recordings and audio for multi camera set ups. I always go that extra mile.
Equally at home with high end and important clients such as The Prime Minister, CEO’s of corporate companies, or 500 strong choirs at the Tate Modern. I am smart, polite and friendly enough to make those clients feel at ease and give their best performance.
When working within a small team, I have a can-do attitude, skills and experience to turn my hand to most tasks on site, be it, lighting, communications, logistics, technical support, transport etc.
