PSYCHOLOGY-DRIVEN SOUND DESIGN

I create tailored sounds for small to mid-sized game studios that predictably shape players' behavior.

About

It all started with games. At age 3, I told my cousin Mickey Mouse was in the hospital so I could play Super Mario Bros. on the NES instead of watch TV. Then came more honest pursuits: a B.A. in Psychology funded by playing tennis for college followed by a Directing and Screenwriting film degree.

I savored my sound classes, so I started sound mixing in Colorado. My love for Disco Elysium, Hollow Knight, and Dark Souls kept growing as I learned about green game design and audio in my spare time. So, my mission became to make story-driven indie games sound great and guide player with psychology!

Since then, I've created memorable sounds and implemented them in award-winning Airborne Empire, Tearoom of Terror, Twinklebly and more. I've also given talks about game audio, building community, and green games. Thanks for visiting and I'm here to chat about your project when you're ready!

Testimonials

Fred Gareau, Co-Founder

of The Wandering Band

"As Audio Director, Sabrina brought the quality of Airborne Empire’s sound design to a level we were previously lacking. She found different areas of the game that would benefit considerably from unique sounds that she then produced with great attention to detail. Those sounds added depth and character to our virtual world which helped us establish Airborne Empire’s personality."

Daniel Chipman, Founder of Sun Lion Games

"Sabrina is one of the most organized and professional freelancers I've ever worked with. She not only showed an impressive amount of care in how she conducted business, but also took a holistic approach to her craft to make sure there was a clear vision for the audio design for Lichgate. The planning and breakdowns she provided were top-notch and really stood out."

"Sabrina was a really great help getting Twinkleby over the finishing line. She's a really great combination of creative, technical, and proactive that made it really easy to give her areas of ownership without any worries. I genuinely recommend Sabrina for any project that requires care and attention to audio. You will be in great hands."

Ryan Sim, Technical Audio Supervisor at Warner Bros.
