Expert audio editing & production

With a deep understanding of the power of audio, and the benefit of a fully equipped recording studio in Kent, I help bring stories to life through sound.

  • Audiobook Editing & Mastering: With experience editing and mastering audiobooks for mainstream publishers, I make sure that every word, pause, and breath is perfectly placed to enhance the listener’s experience.
  • Podcast Production: I write and produce the highly-rated Business Buying Strategies podcast, now in its 293rd episode.
  • Creative Audio Projects: In addition to technical expertise, my team and I bring creativity to the table. Keeping Watch, our social history podcast about lighthouses and their keepers, is a testament to our ability to tell unique stories in engaging ways.

I’m often on the lookout for exciting new projects. If you’re looking for an experienced audio editor who can elevate your content, then I’d love to collaborate.

Each year, I offer courses tailored to the needs of writers at different stages of their journey, helping them to achieve their publishing goals with confidence and clarity.
