Bio
Jay DiFuria
Working with Kegan was a delight. From the start of our time on Hangar 13's Audio Team, it was very apparent how much care and precision went into his work. His passion for game audio and raw talent meant results that were innovative, creative, and consistently met deadlines. As a teammate, Kegan has stellar communication and organizational skills. He takes critical feedback extremely well and is willing to tactfully offer the same back to his colleagues. His technical knowledge and problem-solving skills made working with him a breeze. He drives his team forward while keeping a positive attitude. Kegan's professional and personal experience in audio makes him an invaluable asset to any audio team. I look forward to getting the opportunity to work with Kegan again, and I'd highly recommend him for anyone looking to stay on the cutting edge of audio.
