How it works: This first mentoring session will include six participants. If space fills quickly, please don’t hesitate to sign up — this is an ongoing program, and as mentors and availability increase, we’ll continue adding new sessions.
Mentor Spotlight: Jasmine Mills
Originally from Western New York State, Jasmine Mills has been based in Los Angeles since May 2018, building a career that bridges music, technology, and storytelling across recording, broadcast, and film & television.
Knowing early on that she wanted a career combining music and science, Jasmine enrolled in the Sound Recording Technology program at SUNY Fredonia’s School of Music, earning a Bachelor of Science degree in December 2018. Prior to college, her musical foundation included violin performance in school orchestras, solo festivals, recitals, private lessons, pit orchestras for musicals, and summers at Chautauqua Institution music camp.
While at SUNY Fredonia, Jasmine was deeply involved in hands-on audio work. She was a member of the Tönmeisters Association, the student- and faculty-run Sound Recording Technology organization, as well as Fredonia Sound Services, the student-run live sound organization. Her projects ranged from recording full bands to analog tape to engineering live streams of concerts and recitals.
Before her senior year, Jasmine interned at 4th Street Recording in Los Angeles, owned by industry veteran Kathleen Wirt. Through that experience, she built strong professional relationships and ultimately chose to remain in LA, completing her degree virtually while continuing to work in the industry.
Her studio engineering credits include assistant engineering on High Road (2020) by Kesha, the John Lennon Songwriting Contest 2020 Grand Prize song Alindahaw by Alfa Garcia, and Van Weezer (2021) by Weezer, produced by Suzy Shinn. She is also serving as a recording engineer on the upcoming album by Experiment (feat. Eddie Wass).
In film and television scoring, Jasmine has worked extensively as a score mixing assistant with Eva Reistad, contributing to projects including The Devil Conspiracy (2022), Netflix’s Afterlife of the Party (2021) and The Independent (2022), BBC’s Planet Earth III (2023), and Amazon Prime’s Canary Black (2024). She has also collaborated with scoring engineer Forest Christenson on projects such as The Blue Angels (2024), The Tattooist of Auschwitz (2024), Ghosts of Ruin: The Animated Series (2024), and BBC & NBC’s The Americas (2025).
Alongside her engineering work, Jasmine is the assistant to company president Tom Hilbe at T.H.E. Company (Tom Hilbe Equipment Company), where she works closely with vintage audio equipment while wearing many hats — including secretary, audio engineer, and salesperson. Previously, she served as Head Engineer at Beets & Produce, Inc., owned by Black Eyed Peas producer Printz Board.
Jasmine is an active member of the audio community and currently participates in Women in Music LA, SoundGirls, Women’s Audio Mission LA, We Are Moving the Needle, and serves on the Executive Committee of the Audio Engineering Society’s Los Angeles Section. She also became a member of the Hollywood Sapphire Group in November 2024.
When she’s not in the studio or on a session, Jasmine takes on occasional live sound gigs, connects with fellow engineers and musicians, and enjoys reading vintage audio equipment manuals. Outside of work, she loves learning fun facts, watching film video essays, listening to music, finding movies and series guaranteed to make her cry, doing crossword and jigsaw puzzles, and singing — exclusively in her car.
