NOT A CURRICULUM — FOR SOUND DESIGNERS, EDITORS & MIXERS
Mentorship that is built around you
A personalised mentorship focused on your work, your challenges, and your development as an audio post-production professional.
Bring your projects, your Pro Tools sessions, and your questions. I'll examine your work with you, identify what needs improving, and explore technical and creative solutions — helping you develop the judgement behind those decisions.
THE STRUCTURE
Six weeks.
Direct guidance.
Your work.
I begin by understanding your background, your work and your goals. Together we identify what needs attention and shape the following weeks around it.
Bring the session you’re stuck on, the mix you can’t commit to, or the edit you can’t justify. I work through it with you and explain the reasoning behind each decision.
The structure is consistent. The work is entirely your own.
ALSO INCLUDED
Direct access & community
The mentorship doesn't end when your weekly session does.
Throughout the six weeks, you'll have access to a private group chat with fellow mentees and direct text communication with me.
Share work, ask questions between sessions, and connect with other sound professionals.
I respond to mentorship-related messages within two working days.

THIS IS FOR
The sound designer building a foundation
You want to build strong technical foundations, critical thinking, and professional working methods from the beginning.
The mixer who wants to think more narratively
You know how to use the tools. Now you want to understand why one approach serves a scene better than another, and develop the judgement behind those choices.
The professional refining their craft
You’re already working on projects and want direct feedback on your sessions, creative decisions, and workflow to strengthen your professional practice.
Less noise.
More clarity.
Fewer tricks.
More craft.
THE OUTCOME
This isn't career acceleration. It's professional development.
The kind that strengthens how you listen, think, and make decisions long after the mentorship ends.
WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH
I’ve been working in sound since I was sixteen — starting out making coffees and polishing faders, learning through years spent in the room before I ever thought about teaching it.
Since then, my work has taken me from recording orchestras and dialogue on set to sound editing, design, and final mixing. Along the way, I completed a Master's in Sound and Post-Production and worked with filmmakers and brands around the world.
What has stayed with me is the fascination with the craft — listening closely, questioning decisions and understanding why something works.
Through this mentorship, I bring that experience directly into your work. Not simply to show you how I approach a problem, but to help you develop the understanding and judgement to approach it yourself.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from the masterclasses?
The masterclasses are self-paced and built around specific subjects. The mentorship is built around you — your projects, your challenges, and your goals. There is no fixed curriculum. We work directly with your material, identify what needs developing, and shape each session around your individual needs.
What level of experience do I need?
There is no minimum level of experience. What matters is that you're serious about developing your craft and prepared to engage with the process. Whether you're building your foundations or refining an established professional practice, we'll identify where you are, what you want to develop, and how to get there.
Do I need to have an active project?
No. While working on your own projects is encouraged, it isn't a requirement. If you don't have suitable material to work with, I can provide a Pro Tools practice session so we can explore technical and creative decisions together, apply what we've discussed, and develop your skills through practical work.
What does a typical week look like?
We meet weekly for a 90-minute one-to-one session over video. Each session combines discussion, practical demonstrations, and direct feedback on your work. Between meetings, you'll apply what we've discussed through focused tasks and independent practice between sessions.
Can I contact you between sessions?
Yes. You can message me directly with mentorship-related questions throughout the six weeks. I respond within two working days. Individual discussions and project materials remain private unless you choose to share them with the group.
What can we work on together?
Every mentorship is different. We can work on dialogue editing, sound design, mixing, session organisation, professional workflow, critical listening, and the creative decisions behind your work. The focus is determined by your projects, your challenges, and your goals. We'll identify those priorities together during our initial conversation.
How do I apply?
Start by joining the waitlist and telling me a little about your experience, your current work, and what you'd like to develop. Applications open on 2 November 2026. I'll contact you personally to discuss your goals and whether the mentorship is the right fit before offering a place. Joining the waitlist is free and doesn't commit you to a place.
