A life long lover of nature and constantly intrigued by the natural world and the invisible world of sounds that surround us. This has taken me on a journey of trying to combine my love of exploring and documenting nature with my passion for recording and understanding sound. The idea has since manifested into a number of interesting projects and is in a constant state of evolution. I like the idea of using art as a way to understand the world of science, using imagination to explore scientific ideas beyond the limits of traditional scientific methodology.

I have built up the gear to record and capture sounds for use in films, interviews and music projects or you can check out the library of sounds. I have worked on a number of film projects in a number of different roles and enjoy working behind the camera, which has helped how I work with sound. I like being able to provide a different point of view and unique service for people who like the idea of thinking outside the box, because I live outside the box. 

The most profound sound you will ever hear, is the sound when your heart breaks open

I work all over the planet, but San Francisco is my home. Travel is a both welcome and sometimes exhausting part of my life. I'm eager to play more locations in the Eastern part of Europe. Belgrade here I come! No, really. I mean that. 
And my dream is to someday play to cheering masses in countries like India and China and Texas, as the words spread that comedy is the ONLY active, vibrant, convincing method of reviving liberalism.
