About

A composer with a traditional background in music and experience working with a wide range of styles.

I’m a composer based in Adelaide, Australia, who has completed their Honours in film composition and their Master’s in composing adaptive music for video games.

I have a traditional background in music, playing in orchestras and concert bands in my earlier years, while also exploring modern musical styles and instruments in my compositions.

I have worked on several short film projects as both composer and sound designer and have experience utilising unique systems to create interactive soundtracks.
