hello!
My name is Jared Olson. I am an award-winning sound designer, editor, and mixer with over ten years of experience in post-production audio.
I specialize in sound designing and editing fantastic and magical stories for audio mediums. I’m passionate about making dialog sparkle, creating moods with scarily accurate background ambience (ask me about mountain vs. forest birds), and making those laser guns sound really cool. I help tell stories by using audio to enhance emotion.
I also have experience in sound design and editing for short films, commercials (WINNER - 2021 Telly Award for Sound Design), and television.
