Hi, I'm Alyssa Smith, a passionate film composer and music editor currently studying at Berklee College of Music. I specialize in creating original scores for films, video games, and other media, and I love collaborating with directors and animators to bring artistic visions to life. With strong skills in composing, arranging, and conducting, I enjoy managing all aspects of musical production from concept to performance. I have had the opportunity to work on various projects, including scoring video games and student films, orchestrating for orchestras, and managing orchestral groups at Berklee. Outside of composing, I am also skilled in music editing and instrument repair. I'm excited to continue growing as a creative musician and contribute to compelling multimedia storytelling.
