“Amber was my first choice when it was clear to me that not only did she understand music, she has a passion for it. It’s clear that she edits with heart. If it weren’t for Amber, composing on Queen Sugar would have been very difficult. Her musicality, organization, and technical expertise enabled me to honor my creative commitments on the TV show while simultaneously being on tour. She maintains the highest level of artistic integrity and her notes are clear and concise; Elements crucial for any discerning composer.”

"I have worked with Sharyn for over six years on TV pilots and series shows. Sharyn is great at what she does: music editing shows and being the conduit between editors/producers/composers and music supervisors. She has always shown an incredible level of professionalism under HIGH-stress situations on the regular. Besides being easy to work with, she understands how to help sell the music, created or pitched, by editing with great precision and attention to detail. She's also a champion of deadlines. Having her on your team will only make your job easier."

Sharyn has raised the bar every time we give her a piece of music to work on. It’s always fun to collaborate with someone that can build on something that we think is as good as it will get, and then shows us a version that even better achieves the goal we were aiming for. Love working with her!”

"I have so many wonderful things to say about working with the team at Create Harmony Media. I will start with the fact that they are simply the most pleasant people to be around. They are truly kind, funny, and eternally optimistic. They always bring a smile and positive energy to the stage, which I look forward to each mix day. On top of being lovely humans, they are fantastic at their jobs! They are so quick, so collaborative and so willing to try anything. I don't think I've ever heard them utter the words "no" or "I can't". They can make anything work. I also appreciate the feedback I've gotten from our Composers, who completely trust Amber and Sharyn to help put the finishing touches on their work. As we know, the communication between a Music Editor and a Composer is extremely important, Amber and Sharyn always have the right tools and words to make everyone feel comfortable and taken care of, they are a composer's dream. They are a Producer's dream and  I'm so thankful to have them on my team!"
