I am a composer, orchestrator and audio professional with a strong passion for visual media and music. I learned piano at a young age and later moved into production, composing and working across screen, games and library music. I enjoy listening to scores, studying existing music and creating close to realistic mockups of original material. Throughout my career I have worked on film, TV, video games and library music, covering composing, orchestration, arranging, mixing, mastering and dubbing, while also recording and editing audio for productions.
