About me

Los Angeles, United States

I'm a composer for visual media, producer, and guitarist. I'm inspired by the works of John Williams, John Powell, and Hans Zimmer, and am also continuously driven by jazz fusion artists such as Snarky Puppy and Jacob Collier, as well as soul artists such as Ray LaMontagne and Marc Broussard.

I've written the soundtrack for a number of short films, and have assisted Emmy-nominated composer Michael Kramer, where I wrote for the hit Cartoon Network show "LEGO Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu."

I studied music at Tufts University, where I got the opportunity to study with the esteemed composer Kareem Roustom, as well as accomplished composer and pianist John McDonald. I recorded a self-titled EP with my band "Shark Saddle," in which I played guitar and co-produced.

I'm currently working on a feature-length sci-fi/ horror film set to release in the summer of 2019, as well as short film drama due to release in December 2018.
