My music is all about exploring new worlds! I combine cinematic styles with influences from other musical cultures, and pair my music with my own original characters and stories.

​

I release my music on Bandcamp and my YouTube channels. I also release fan music and arrangements of other songs, as well as videos about my creative process.

​

In addition to my personal projects, I accept commissions from filmmakers, authors, and artists who want to have music that breathes life into their worlds and characters.

​

I received my M.M. in Contemporary Media and Film Composition from the Eastman School of Music, where I studied with professors Mark Watters and Dave Rivello. I received my B.A. from Coastal Carolina University, where I studied classical composition with Dr. Donald Sloan and piano performance with Dr. Philip Powell.

​

I love the color pink, horses, macaroni and cheese, Mozart’s Symphony No. 41, kid’s movies, My Little Pony, and a nice, brisk walk in the morning’s breeze.
