Mastering
I make my living mastering records. I call it my 'day job' but it's neither a job and frequently happens not during the day... Feel free to explore some of my previous work on my website, and if you have any questions or are ready to collaborate, send a booking request, and let's get started.
Consulting
Along with mastering, I offer a range of additional services as a freelance acoustical consultant, recording engineer, technology consultant, web developer, and musician. With my expertise spanning a variety of audio-related and audio-adjacent fields, I just lump these into 'other services'. Don't hesitate to reach out if you're interested in exploring any of these avenues further.
education
Teaching is a recent addition to my already diverse skill set. As an Acoustics instructor in the MBPT department at Austin Community College, I offer an introductory course that provides a comprehensive understanding of acoustics using algebra-only math and hands-on learning opportunities. If you're interested in expanding your knowledge in this exciting field, consider enrolling in my class and discover the fascinating world of acoustics.

Vinyl Cutting Levels
There are lots of things to consider when planning to release your music on vinyl. Among these things to consider is where the split between the A-side and B-side is. In order to figure that out, you'll need to know some basic information about your album like the length of the songs and how many of them there are. In addition to that, you will need to consider other things like what size record you'll be pressing and how much audio can fit on that size record.
