THE ENGINEER

Hey, I'm Nader Boctor — but you might know me as Tornader. I'm a passionate and detail-oriented audio engineer based in Kalamazoo, MI, with four years of hands-on experience in audio editing, mixing, mastering, and sound design.

I hold a Diploma in Audio Engineering from Hofa College in Germany, along with certifications from Berklee in Vocal Production, Creating Sounds for Electronic Music, and The Technology of Music Production. I work primarily in Pro Tools and Ableton Live.

Whether it's a full mix, a polished master, or creative sound design, I'm dedicated to delivering high-quality soundscapes and music production tailored to each client's vision. Fluent in English and Arabic.
