ABOUT
Hello! I am a sound designer for games with roughly 9 years of experience in the industry, spanning AAA and indie games. I started my career as a composer for games before transitioning into being a full-time sound designer, now using my learnings from both to create the most immersive audio experiences possible.
​
My most recent position was as a Sound Designer at Riot Games, where I worked from 2018 until 2025. While I was there, I worked on both Teamfight Tactics and League of Legends, with a few highlights including:
-
Creating and implementing sound effects for Teamfight Tactics sets, from Gizmos and Gadgets through K.O. Coliseum.
-
Acting as the audio Lead for Teamfight Tactics : Inkborn Fables and Into the Arcane.
-
Music editing and implementation for the Everything Goes On Arena and K/DA in the Convergence Arena in Teamfight Tactics
Before Riot, I did freelance game audio for indie games while working at Berklee College of Music as a Session Coordinator. I also have prior experience working in Japan, with my most notable position being Assistant Sound Director at Gem Impact.
​
I'm currently available for new projects, and would love to hear from you if you would be interested in working together!
