Collaborating on themes and imagery I use music to express cohesion and depth. My exposure to different elements of music genres give me a unique take on blending instrumentation with production while maintaining a thematic presence, evoking emotion is my specialty. Working alongside someone else's vision is where I shine.
I'm a seasoned intermediate level scorer/producer who is looking to push my knowledge and pursuit to new levels through means of collaboration. I shine when in collaborative settings, with basic ideas and themes that allow me to freely express and convey a deeper or meaningful adhesion. Whether that be helping a singer create a song with a certain gravitas, or creating a score for a fantasy podcast or video game. My unique abilities in stringed and percussive instruments allow me to have a unique flare to most of my work, and give my projects a bit of an audible autograph. I am a fast learner and can adapt to different DAW's or studio software, and my in-the-box approach allows me to think of creative workarounds.
