Sound Designer and Composer.
I’m a sound designer and composer working primarily in film. I come from a nearly 20 year professional background in music production, alongside scoring and supervising multiple short films, including festival-circulating work.
I love close collaboration with directors, shaping sonic identity, emphasizing story, tone, and emotion.
I feel especially drawn to projects in non-fiction, explorations of natural subjects and science, texture, and on top of that, I also enjoy deep diving into disparate sub-genres of music.
