Available to hire
I am an international, award-winning composer with an MA in Scoring for Media, dedicated to telling stories through cinematic music. Over more than a decade I have written music for short films, feature projects, and documentaries, crafting scores that support character and narrative. I was honored to be nominated for the International PEER RABEN Award for Best Score.
I work well in teams, am highly organized, and love learning new skills quickly. I collaborate closely with directors, editors, and Foley artists to bring scenes to life, and I continually expand my toolkit with hands-on music production, orchestration, and sound design.
