I’m an audio engineer, music producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with 20 years of professional recording experience. I’ve worked with artists across rock, heavy metal, hip-hop, pop, and jazz, helping bring their music from initial ideas to finished releases.
I opened my first studio, Sonic Solutions, in 2006. It began as a repair business and expanded into a repair and recording studio, laying the groundwork for my later work at Beta Sound Services.
As the former owner and lead engineer of Beta Sound Services, I guided projects through recording, production, detailed audio editing, mixing, mastering, and restoration. I work with Pro Tools and Logic Pro and bring experience with both analog and digital production workflows.
During my formative years, I worked alongside established producers and engineers, including Tom Gordon, whose engineering credits include Dr. Dre, Collective Soul, The Beach Boys, and Whitesnake. Those experiences helped shape my approach to recording, production, and artist collaboration.
I worked with Tom on Egress’s Freshly Squeezed, an album featuring Steve Ewing of The Urge and Arabian Prince of N.W.A. My contributions included co-production and assistant recording engineering, and I also handled the album’s remastering.
My work with Joe Pop-O-Pie, founder of San Francisco’s Pop-O-Pies and an early Faith No More vocalist, includes songwriting, production, mixing, and mastering on “Lenny in Wonderland,” featured on the official re-release of White EP. Pop-O-Pies’ history also includes Faith No More’s Bill Gould and Mike Bordin, who played bass and drums on Joe’s Second Record.
I also understand the artist’s side of the process. For my original project, JWS, I write, arrange, and perform the music and vocals, then handle recording, editing, mixing, and mastering. I sing and play guitar, bass, and keyboards, alongside beat programming and synthesizer sound design.
Whether your music calls for aggressive impact, organic warmth, or modern polish, my goal is to understand your vision and enhance what makes your sound unique. I offer mixing, mastering, audio editing, production, arrangement, collaborative songwriting, and remote pre-production consulting.
Tell me about your project, what stage it’s at, and the sound you’re working toward.
