MICAH JOHNSON - Partner | Mixer

 

Micah's path started early, running sound for his father's church in Florida. His obsession with audio grew through his teenage years via competitive car audio and statewide bass contests. After earning a Recording Arts degree from Full Sail University, he landed an assistant role at Miami's legendary Hit Factory — working alongside Missy Elliott, Godsmack, Gloria Estefan, and Timbaland, and left hungry for more.

He sold everything and headed to Los Angeles, landing at Capitol Records before finding his footing at Radio In The Nude, a Santa Monica post production facility where he spent years sharpening his sound design and mixing skills on national radio and TV campaigns. A stint on a Hollywood feature film lot followed, before Micah joined Atlantis Group Recording in Santa Monica, spending nearly a decade on AAA video games, TV spots, audio books, and feature films. He also built a family there, marrying a fellow engineer and welcoming two kids.

Raising children in LA without a relative within a thousand miles made the next decision easy. Micah moved the family to Minneapolis, his wife's hometown, and spent two years teaching at IPR, earning Instructor of the Year along the way. But the pull of post production proved stronger than the classroom.

He found his home at SisterBoss, where he works as a post production engineer and sound designer and is also a Partner.
