Strings Composer / Violinist

As a violinist and string arranger for over 15 years, I've written and recorded on tracks such as Hayley Kiyoko’s hit “Sleepover," and Yuna's "Kiss the Moon," and have had my arrangements featured on NPR's Tiny Desk with Selina Moon. I've worked with artists such as Baths, Robin Hannibal (Rhye), Yore, and Kevin Olusola (Pentatonix).

I have over 15 years of experience working with industry artists, composers, and labels. Whether it be a lush top line on violin, or an epic orchestral sound with violin, viola, and cello, I am a one-stop for string needs.

Many projects I am given that start as rough drafts end up having a more distinct character and direction once the session is finished. My playing and arranging style has been described by as "cinematic" and "romantic."

- Producers like the flexibility and options I give them with stems. I can do chords and pads to fill out a mix or back a guitar line, but also distinct melodic lines and/or ambient textures to compliment vocals, or add something more unique-sounding to an instrumental. I am happy to experiment and brainstorm with you as its very much part of my creative process.
- Movie trailers, R&B, classic rock, I have written for so many different styles and intentions. Please visit my website to hear my discography in full!
- If requested, I can also write out sheet music for you to have other musician's record/perform with.
