Hi! I’m Michelle Hwu,
an audio designer, director, and Foley artist from Toronto.
I work across games and post-production for film and TV. I’ve spent over a decade creating sound for interactive and linear media, with experience on projects ranging from indie games to festival films and broadcast work. My background in orchestral percussion performance shapes how I approach sound, with a focus on rhythm, texture, and storytelling.
