TIMMY SAMPSON

Audio Engineer/Video Production Specialist

I am an enthusiastic and creative audio engineer who loves solving challenging problems while supporting other people. My greatest joy is found in the studio environment. That place where I can pour my energy into recording, digital editing, mixing, and post production for video. By blending technical video production skills and artful visual content, I aspire to deliver inspirational and compelling narratives. I care most about hearing a person’s story, casting their vision, sculpting the idea and then delivering something authentic. I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a B.A. in Music Production. Having grown up in Wakefield, I love being able to serve the citizens of my home town!
