About Me

I'm a composer and sound designer based in Portland, Oregon. Originally educated as a classical pianist and music theorist, I started digital music production as a way of realizing my orchestral scores, but quickly fell in love with uniquely digital tools and grew to become the versatile composer and producer I am today. Nowadays you can usually find me running around with a shotgun microphone recording interesting little sounds to add to my library, and creating adaptive music and sound design for games. I have a programming background as well, so I love working with game development teams and finding ways to solve problems using logic within the audio middleware. Game audio isn't just an art, it's a puzzle!

In addition to composing and sound design, I also teach other people how to make music, including piano lessons, which I teach from my home in Southeast Portland, and composition and music theory lessons, which I teach online.
