Available to hire
24-year-old film composer & audio engineer - I specialise in dark, spectral sounds, blending emotive melodies to create unconventional film and TV scores. Based in Pembrokeshire, West Wales.
My most recent work is the independent short dark thriller film ‘Prey’ (2026), produced with director Rob De Haan. I collaborated closely to deliver a stomach-turning thriller score that helps the story stand out. I also gained hands-on experience shadowing the head of the sound department on Dr Who (Season 14) in 2023 at Bad Wolf Studio, on location and in post. I absolutely love the collaborative nature of the industry and learning from every project, and I’m eager to score more films.
