Hi! I’m Ray.

I’m a transdisciplinary artist and theater maker with an MFA in Sound Design (‘25) from Carnegie Mellon University. My work is rooted in acoustic exploration, embodiment research, trauma-informed practice, and my lived experience of disability.

I’ve spent many years as a director, designer, crew member, performer in community theatre and producing children’s theater. My work across many roles in theater has given me experience in storytelling from different technical and dramaturgical perspectives. You can view/download my CV here and browse my sound-specific credits below.

I’m available for in-person and remote Sound Design projects. Contact me here for more info!
