The Composer

Where Sound
Meets Story

An award-winning composer, producer, and sonic architect with credits spanning commercial film, television, and music — including landmark work connected to Ministry and the broader alternative music landscape.

My approach fuses orchestral depth with contemporary production, creating music that doesn't just accompany a scene — it defines it. Every placement is intentional, every texture earned.

Based in the Chicago area, working globally with directors, music supervisors, and brands who demand more from their sound.
