I'm a musician and filmmaker from California who specializes in scoring and film editing. Ever since first seeing the original Star Wars at the ripe old age of five, I’ve been captivated by the power of film and orchestral music. The ability to conjure a swell of emotion or a rush of excitement is magical, and it’s what’s driven me ever since. My passion for both music composition and filmmaking has given me 15+ years of experience. I’ve edited, directed, and scored hundreds of videos, accumulating millions of views. These projects have included award-winning short films, web series, music videos, and live performances. I am inspired by all sorts of mediums, and I’m open to working on a wide variety of projects, including films, video games, commercials, and podcasts. _Website not available.
