"All of the audio elements work together to create the cohesive aural world of the game, and my passion is to contribute to each one of them."

Hello, I am Shauny, an experienced audio designer for games and media. I've been working in game audio professionally from 2016. I've shipped games with Mojang (Microsoft), Nintendo, 8th Shore, and Rootless Studios, and now I am working on mixed reality project at Microsoft.
I graduated from DigiPen Institute of Technology with an honor in BA in Music and Sound Design degree in 2017. Aside from working on games, I am also working with Audiokinetic as a freelance technical translator to help the Korean Wwise community to grow and be more involved.
​
I love performing as a piano player and a vocalist with various groups. One of my favorite gigs is playing solo piano at weddings. I think it is really important to keep playing and performing as a musician. I am also a passionate coffee/tea/home-cooking lover ;)
