For me, composing is about more than notes; it's about uncovering the emotional essence of your story and translating it into music that deeply resonates with your audience. Across hundreds of projects spanning television, film, and beyond, I bring a profound artistic understanding to shaping narratives through sonic creation, ensuring your project's emotional impact is maximized and leaves a lasting impression.
As a mixing engineer, I specialize in the meticulous art of blending audio elements to create impactful and immersive soundscapes. My dedication to detail and thousands of hours refining my technical expertise ensure a superior sonic outcome for your project, resulting in enhanced clarity, emotional depth, and overall listener engagement.
Beyond my work composing for commercials, shows, and film, music is a constant and multifaceted passion. I channel my creativity through writing and releasing my own independent music, performing as a solo artist, and collaborating as a guitarist with other groups, including my involvement with the Chicago-based band No Alternative. This diverse engagement with music not only fuels my artistic spirit but also brings a broader, more nuanced perspective to every project I undertake for my clients.
