A biography, a history, a small little something.

TJ has been making noise for as long as anyone can remember. Born and raised in the south suburbs of Chicago, he grew up making movies and playing music; absorbing all things entertainment. TJ quickly transitioned from just playing music to composing, recording, and mixing music semi-professionally; before finishing high-school.

It wasn’t a surprise when he decided to attend Columbia College Chicago’s prestigious audio program where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Audio Art and Acoustics with a dual concentration in Audio Design & Production and Audio for Visual Media. With his newly honed abilities, TJ started a small successful recording studio where he worked, practiced, and grew; strengthening his audio skills and affirming his passion for audio art.
Motivated by his sights on post production sound, TJ decided Los Angeles was his next new adventure and challenge. Within his first year of living in Los Angeles, he had worked on two feature-length independent films, and an award winning TV show. He has since Designed for a multitude of award winning shows, films, and shorts; including an Academy Award Winning Documentary. Over the more than decade since his arrival, he has had the pleasure to have worked with such networks and studios as Warner Bros., CBS, Sony, Lionsgate, Paramount, and copious amounts of others. In 2021 he was nominated for an MPSE Golden Reel Award for his work on “The kominsky Method.”

Currently, he is a freelance sound designer for television and film, based in Studio City, CA.

Looking towards the future, the enthusiasm and drive this young designer exhibits provides the perfect platform for all opportunities to come!
