"I've worked with Steve on several films so far and never cease to be impressed by his
work. He's professional, efficient and delivers great sound. He's
always my first
choice for sound!"
--Kat Candler, Filmmaker

"Good sound design is not just about cleaning up the dialogue and adding sound effects (although
those are very important). It's about breathing life into a world and supporting the emotion of
each moment. Steven works towards these greater goals. He gave dimension to the space beyond the
frame. And my film was better for it."

"It was a sincere pleasure working with Steven on my film ASTERNAUTS. He is extremely
hard-working, driven, and dependable. He was also great at making sure we got a great range
of ambient and production sound effects on set for sound design in post-production. Would
work with him again in a heartbeat!"
