I'm an interdisciplinary artist, audio engineer, and sound designer based New York City. I graduated summa cum laude from Kenyon College with a major in English/creative writing and a minor in studio art, and received my master’s degree from the Glasgow School of Art in Sound for the Moving Image. My personal practice is strongly grounded in sonic arts, poetry, and academic research, with much of it focused on the intersections & interactions between gender theory, ecological theory, and analog synthesis & music technology; in my professional career, I’ve done sound design work for major tech, healthcare, and cultural businesses and institutions and done studio engineering both for full bands and individual artists. My hobbies include reading X-Men comics and perusing listings for vintage synthesizers on Facebook Marketplace. Under the moniker Juno Lev, I've also gained a small (but passionate!) fanbase for my indie pop tracks since 2020. I've racked up a few million streams across platforms, have headlined iconic New York City venues including Mercury Lounge and Rockwood Music Hall, and have been profiled twice in NPR (and was a judge’s top pick for 2023’s NPR Tiny Desk Contest).
