I'm a film and media composer in Australia, currently studying at the Australian National University and working in the Canberra–Sydney region. I write across a range of genres, but most of my work centres on hybrid-orchestral scores.

As filmmakers we are at the forefront of storytelling. We can change the perspectives of those around us and connect people from opposite sides of the world through stories. I do everything possible to colour that connection, whether I need to use traditional instruments, mix in the weird and whacky, or drive the score with sound design so our audience can feel the film as we filmmakers do.

I've been writing music nearly all my life, but shifted my focus to film scoring in 2021. Since then I've worked with award-winning independent filmmakers across the south east coast, with my scores recognised at film festivals across Australia.
