Awarding-winning composer of full-length/short film (esp. documentary, horror), TV, and chamber music. I am also an arranger (strings, orchestra), performer (viola, percussion, keyboard), and audio engineer (recording, editing, mixing, mastering).

I specialize in composing chamber music (with and without electronics) for media. Highlights include assistant composer on the horror film IT COMES AT NIGHT (A24), co-composer on the narrative dramatic film BLOW THE MAN DOWN (Amazon Studios), featured composer on the quirky documentary HAIL SATAN? (Magnolia Pictures), and audio engineer/editor on the 2-part 2019 Emmy-award-winning dramatic documentary DOCUMENTING HATE (PBS Frontline/ProPublica). My compositions for film have been heard at Cannes, Sundance, TriBeCa, the Toronto International Film Festival, and the International Film Festival Rotterdam, amongst others, and my musical work with animation has been screened at Art Basel.

What luck finding Jordan! From the beginning, he committed himself not only to understanding the vision of the scenes that required score, but of this film as a whole. Communication was so easy, he listened carefully to our direction and then went beyond it, creating something better than we imagined. Great collaborative experience!
