In August 2023, I gathered a group of my friends and we sang some of my song circle songs together. I wanted to capture the feeling of socially singing with friends in a living room, so that’s what we did. It was a wonderful afternoon of music, and the feeling of community in the space was tangible. I hope some of the joy of singing with friends I felt that day comes through in these recordings.

In the summer of 2021, my college friends Lena, Regan, and I rented a cabin in the woods of Wisconsin for 5 days. While we were there, we wrote and recorded a 6 track EP. It was such a fun trip.
We didn’t end up finishing the mix and master for 2 years, but it’s finally out in the world! I had so much fun making these songs. I love how the three of us bring together our musical perspectives to make something that sounds like all of us and none of us at the same time.
Ozone 11 is released! This is the first product I’ve seen through from start to release as Technical Lead, and I’m so proud of what we accomplished. As lead, I was involved in planning and technical strategy, and communicating team status to folks outside the team. I also was still an active developer; some highlights I worked on are the Transient / Sustain splitting, the targeted Ozone Master Assistant, and the Soft Clipper metering in Maximizer.

Lena, Regan, and I love to play music when we get together, and on our most recent visit we recorded this video of us covering Boy Genius’ Ketchum, ID. I feel so lucky to make music with these friends.
Ozone 10 is finally out! My team put together a lot of exciting new features in this update—Impact, a new module focused on micro-dynamics; Stabilizer, a new “magic eq” module; and a soft clipper added to Maximizer that sounds incredible (shoutout to Kurt Werner!) to name a few. I was involved with aspects of all these, but my primary focus for this release was completely overhauling and upgrading the Master Assistant. This was the most challenging and rewarding project I’ve worked on so far.
This year, I had the opportunity to be a co-author with Kurt Werner and Ezra J. Teboul on a DAFX 2022 paper, Modeling and Extending the RCA Mark II Sound Effects Filter.
