​

Senior Audio Designer currently working on the Call of Duty franchise at Beenox (Activision Blizzard King).

I own and deliver gameplay audio, dialogue, and audio system scopes within large-scale AAA productions, contributing from early design through in-engine integration. I continuously balance creative intent, technical constraints, and live production requirements within complex proprietary production environments.
