During my career, I have worked with countless producers, directors, actors, composers, arrangers, vocalists, and musicians. As you will see, my experience is broad and varied. I have a special affinity for music in particular and for the performing arts in general. I have recorded and mixed the music for perhaps thousands of commercials. I have also recorded and mixed a few film scores and dozens of album projects. (Please see discography.)

1997-Present

Since moving to California in 1997, (after thirty years in the NYC music industry), I’ve continued to work with some of my advertising clients on spots for Wells Fargo, Twix (Usher – “It’s all in the mix”), Chevy, Michelin, Dr. Pepper (with Righteous Brother Bill Medley), Ikea (two spots; one with Billy Idol, one with L. L. Cool J.), and Milk (two spots; one with Ray Charles, one with Leanne Rimes). More recently the bulk of my work has shifted toward live mixing for several sound companies on a variety of events. I have also spent hundreds of hours of recording, editing and mixing in Pro Tools.

1981-1997

As a freelance recording engineer, I recorded and mixed some of those thousands of commercials I previously mentioned with studio musicians and vocalists and well known artists such as Kim Carnes, Dwight Yoakum, Aretha Franklin, Michael Bolton, The Temptations, Ben E. King, James Ingram, Leon Redbone, Whitney Houston, Lou Rawls, Patti Austin, Marc Cohn, Bill Withers, Shawn Colvin, and many more.

Co Produced, recorded and mixed (with the amazingly gifted Tom Bates) the first North American recording of the Moscow String Quartet.
