Technical Sound Designer, Audio Programmer, Audio Designer, Gamer

A little about myself; I am a Technical Sound Designer, Music Producer and Audio Implementer for Augmented, Virtual and Conventional video games. I am living currently in the southwest of the UK.

Having fostered a passion for technology in the Royal Air Force, I changed my career path. I have a first-class honours degree in Sound for Games & Apps, and I currently implement and design audio features for some of the biggest games into our “Twin Games” reproductions for broadcast and spectating.

I have played video games from a very young age, with Crash Bandicoot and Wipeout being my earliest gaming memories. Now I enjoy a vast array of games from RTS, sandbox, FPS, VR experiences and tabletop games. I also co-run a gaming society called Raven Gaming and participate in many different discord servers. My time away from the PC has me enjoying playing airsoft, board games, music creation.

I live and breathe games both in their inception and their ending from the individual to the community. Each game I work on is a new adventure and I love being able to tell stories through sonic narrative.
