Summary

Composer working across film, animation, and games. Having independently learned the terminology and workflows of multiple creative disciplines, I communicate effectively across teams and adapt quickly to different production environments.

Music combines orchestral textures with electronic elements, an interest in creating order within chaos. Strive to craft immersive emotional experiences.
