About

I’m a Zimbabwean-born music producer, sound designer, and film score composer based in Forest Hill, Gauteng. I thrive on cross-cultural collaboration and crafting immersive audio experiences for film, animation, and multimedia projects, blending Afro-centric soundscapes with contemporary production techniques and a love for storytelling through sound. My work aims to celebrate cultural identity while resonating with global audiences.

Over the years I have produced music for artists such as Big Zulu, Fish F Ndaramu, Hwabaraty and Msiz’kay, and I have led music production sessions from ideation to mixing and mastering. I have also participated in residency programs, including the Beat-Maker Residency (Next Level) in the US and the Vanacore Music Composer Residency, which have deepened my skills in scoring, collaboration, and production for TV and film.
