Background

From Songwriting to Recording Production

My musical journey began at age 12 with drumming and then shortly after guitar & bass. This kicked off the songwriting which led into the desire to learn recording and production. By 16 I began producing beats and recording with various software & hardware. My first 10 years into music I played in many bands being the main musical contributor and wearing various hats as needed. During high school I was awarded best Tenor Vocalist, at 18 won several local drumming awards, then at 21 won a Battle of the Bands.

Formal Studies and Diverse Compositions

At 18, I embarked on formal music studies at a local college, broadening my expertise across various instruments and styles performing in various ensembles. This era was prolific in composition, resulting in hundreds of songs and numerous orchestral pieces, reflecting my expanding artistic scope. This led to my pieces being performed by multiple academic combos & ensembles live in concert. My experience with different bands and instruments further fueled my passion, leading to composing for diverse media. From video games and animations to short films, infusing each with unique musical narratives.

Current Projects

While pursuing my Masters in Media Design I used every opportunity to compose unique music & SFX for various motion media and gaming projects. I continued this process being part of various game jams, student projects, and internships. These proved to be fun unique challenges that pushed me to further understand others perspectives and how to elicit emotions with sound. Much of my work now has been composing music & SFX for indie games, streamer intros, webisodes/podcasts, events, etc.
