Hi, I’m Madison!

I’m a sound designer with a passion for storytelling through audio. I recently graduated from SFSU with a degree in Broadcast and Electronic Communication Arts, with an emphasis on sound design for film.

I currently intern at both Outpost Studio and Handsome Sound, where I’ve gained a deep understanding of the creative and technical balance required for sound to seamlessly blend and exist within any medium. This experience allows me to apply my creative instincts, technical training, and collaborative mindset to projects that value storytelling, experimentation, and sonic detail.

Growing up in Los Angeles, surrounded by the lively energy of the entertainment industry, I developed an appreciation for how sound can shape the emotional core of a story or experience. Whether it’s subtle ambience or bold effects, stylized effects, I believe sound has the power to make worlds feel real, or completely reimagined.

What draws me to sound design is its invisible influence. It’s the detail most viewers don’t consciously notice, but can’t feel immersed without. That kind of impact is what excites me every time I open a session.
