I am a versatile musician and musical director with extensive experience in live show production, stage management, and events coordination. Over the years, I have composed and arranged music across genres such as rock, pop, and country, creating backing tracks and orchestral/hybrid interludes to enhance live performances for various artists. I have also scored multiple short films and composed numerous pieces for orchestra. I bring leadership and teamwork skills to every project and am adaptable to diverse musical and production environments.

I also manage logistics such as travel and production coordination to ensure smooth and successful tours. My working history includes roles as a booking agent, production coordinator, musical director, and performer across nationally touring acts and music agencies, demonstrating strong communication, negotiation, and customer service abilities.
