I’ve been passionate about music my whole life, played various instruments, worked on mixing desk, recorded and produced all kinds of music sessions. At the same time I began to specialize in the field of post-production for spoken word.

Now, behind me I have a lot of audio books, podcasts, various audio stories and courses, commercials and jingles. And most importantly, over time I gained the power to actually see the sound at its full capacity so I can enhance it and adapt it to different occasions.
