How I Craft Sound:
As a sound mixer and sound designer working across TV, trailers, film, and advertising, I rely on a carefully selected set of tools that help me work efficiently, creatively, and to the highest professional standards.
This page is a behind-the-scenes look at my sound workflow - The gear, software, and creative approaches I use on a daily basis. Whether you're a fellow sound professional, a curious client, or someone starting your own audio journey, here’s what powers my sound.
Featured Tool: Krotos Studio

🌀 My Workflow Approach
Every project is different, but I often follow this process:
Creative Brief – Understanding the story, mood, and emotion behind the visuals.
SFX Pass – Layering textures, designing key moments.
Dialogue Polish – Cleanup, leveling, ADR, voiceover integration.
Mix & Delivery – Balancing the full spectrum, meeting spec, delivering broadcast, social/online or cinema‑ready mixes.
