SOUND

I’m a keyboardist and composer based in Denver, Colorado. After many years playing in the indie/ electronic bands Mombi and Mute Forest, I’m focusing on composing music for film and TV projects full time. I completed my studies at Berklee College of Music in the Spring of 2019, furthering my skills in orchestration, composition and writing to picture in all styles.

Some of my recent clients include GoPro, Hooké Films, Velvet Green Music and Samplephonics.

If you need music for any kind of media project, I’d love to hear from you!

I’m composing the music for the short film “Coiffeur Extraordinaire: Waiting for Legros,” which is in the final stages of production, set to be released in early 2022. I’m so excited to be working with Denver film maker Lance Lucero and his team. The entire movie has been shot on real film and has some serious saturated, analog flavor. Prepare for some harpsichord madness!
