He went on to a staff engineering position at Chung King Studios (NYC), working on projects with a wide range of artists , including Lauryn Hill, Smashing Pumpkins, Whitney Houston, among others. Along the way, he developed a close relationship with Lauryn, working first on Grammy award-winning solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, and was eventually recruited to work as her home studio engineer. Future projects included collaborations with Commissioner Gordon (Del Amitri, Santana, Bob Marley, etc). at whose NJ-based studio, The Headquarters, Jamie has lent his expertise as house engineer.

A lifelong musician himself, Jamie brings extensive knowledge and devotion to the recording process.

Jamie enjoys working with local bands and solo artists, combining his musical and technical background to enhance any project he takes on. jrock studios is the culmination of all of this- years of industry experience, expertly-honed skill, and a genuine love of good music.
