I’m an award-winning composer based in Los Angeles, bringing imagination and emotion to every project. My work spans iconic film scores and engaging animations, always guided by a love of storytelling through music. I’ve had the privilege of collaborating with studios such as Disney and DreamWorks, and I approach each project with the same goal: to craft melodies that resonate, inspire, and linger long after the screen fades. Music is a universal language, and I strive to speak it with honesty, creativity, and heart. Let’s make something memorable together.
