I am a Dublin and London based composer and producer who has worked across multiple genres of music, film and media, specialising in indie, rock and orchestral music. My diverse style encompasses sound design, cinematic and electronic work, right up to score production and producing music for full orchestra. With over a decade of experience in the music industry, I have collaborated with a diverse array of artists, bands, and composers, seeking to bring a unique touch to each project. My work is characterized by a meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of both modern and classical music forms, allowing me to create innovative soundscapes that resonate with listeners on multiple levels. Whether it's the raw, stripped-back sound of an indie track or the lush, layered complexity of an orchestral piece, I aim to bring out the best in the music. Working from my home studio, I have a broad range of analogue and digital equipment, plug-ins, software and acoustic instruments at my disposal, which I will use to deliver the highest quality mix for your project. Most recently, I completed the score for the horror film Krampus, released in 2024, and I completed over 120 episodes as the lead composer for the popular animated series, Gecko’s Garage. In March 2024, I was named as a finalist for the CueTube's scoring competition among over 450 applicants and I am currently working on the score for two short films.
