I’m a visionary music producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with 25 years of experience spanning electronica, reggae, metal, flamenco, blues, acoustic guitar-driven music, cinematic scoring, and Afro-Caribbean traditions. I view music as emotional architecture, crafting sound that amplifies narrative, reveals subtext, and translates silence into meaning. I build immersive soundscapes entirely in-house—from composition and live instrumentation (drums, electric & acoustic guitars, bass, keys, vocals, and Puerto Rican cuatro) to recording, mixing, and final production. My award-winning scores have helped shape films recognized at Tribeca, and I continue to pursue collaborations that honor authenticity, atmosphere, and storytelling.…I’m a visionary music producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with 25 years of experience spanning electronica, reggae, metal, flamenco, blues, acoustic guitar-driven music, cinematic scoring, and Afro-Caribbean traditions.
