About Micha

Micha always jokes that he and digital audio arrived in Hollywood on the same flight. As the industry was shifting from analog to digital, Micha, a classically trained musician with a computer science mind, showed up at exactly the right moment. He quickly carved out a niche as one of the first people who could truly speak both languages: art and tech. That rare combination would define his Emmy-winning career in film and television.

For over three decades, Micha has shaped the sound of some of the most beloved shows on TV, including Only Murders in the Building, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Deadwood, Virgin River, Rectify, and Looking for Alaska. His work as a music editor has earned him four Emmy nominations (one win), multiple Golden Reel Awards, and the trust of directors, showrunners, and composers across the industry.

Micha studied audio engineering at Houston Community College and music theory and composition at Binghamton University, where he also began composing for film and theater. After moving to Los Angeles, he blended his technical and creative strengths into a career that has spanned genres, formats, and studios.

But Micha isn't just a behind-the-scenes wizard. He's also a composer, entrepreneur, recording artist, and speaker. As the founder of Mind Meld Arts, he built one of the most respected music editorial companies in Hollywood. He's written original scores for films, developed music tracking software used throughout the industry, and released his debut album Whole New Sun.

When he's not in the studio, Micha speaks to companies and creative professionals about what it means to succeed where art meets technology. His stories from Hollywood inspire others to blend creativity with precision and find their own version of success. He also hosts The Sounds of Hollywood, a podcast where he introduces the people behind the scenes who shape the way Hollywood sounds.

Micha lives in Los Angeles with his wife, their two kids, and a dog who strongly believes she's in charge.
