Testimonials

"We have a team of 25 people helping us with Airwiggles and Daniel is by far the most valued helper we have. He is so friendly and easy to work with, always quick to respond, and really owns every task we give to him in such a way that it feels like we never have to worry about anything if Daniel is on the case. I think Daniel would slot in fantastically at any game studio or audio team and I would happily recommend working with him."

Community Volunteering

Airwiggles

The much loved social platform for audio creatives and professionals, particularly sound designers and composers in game audio. A place for us all to come together, share our work and discuss all things sound. I primarily handle event administration for the site but am involved closely with assisting on creative decisions and site direction.

SFX Swap

The SFX swap is the largest SFX crowd sourcing project in the world, used by thousands of sound designers and working with some of the biggest companies in sound design. Participants submit their sound effects every month and then receiving everything that has been contributed. After the founder left in mid-2024, I am now the leader of the project and run all aspects.
