About
I write music and design sound for theatre, film and advertising, and I record, mix and master records. Both sides feed each other: the composer knows what a mix needs, the engineer knows what a score can carry.
I studied sound design and audio engineering at hdpK Berlin (2013–2016), and since 2026 I teach sound design and mixing at SRH University. Right now I'm also building my own VST plugin and a drum sample shop.
