Born in 1995, I have spent my life studying music, playing games, and watching cartoons. After being refused an instrument change from percussion to clarinet in grade 7 band class, and mastering expert mode drums in Rock Band 2, I joined my high school’s junior & senior jazz ensembles, playing the hits across Canada. I later graduated with a degree in popular music studies from the University of Western Ontario in 2018, a master’s degree in songwriting from the Irish World Academy of Music & Dance in 2020, and a graduate certificate in scoring for visual media in 2024 from Sheridan College.
My work in gaming has won awards from the Games for Change festival in New York City, the Level-Up Showcase, & the CNE Game Garage in Toronto. My work in film & animation has been exhibited in festivals in Toronto, Seattle, Oakville, & Oshawa.
Some of my favourite games & cartoons include Hollow Knight, Legend of Dragoon, Inscryption, Lorelei & The Laser Eyes, Resident Evil, Guilty Gear -Strive-, Ace Attorney, Majora’s Mask, Fire Emblem, Adventure Time, RWBY, Amazing Digital Circus, Sakura Quest, & Laid-Back Camp.
I’m particularly interested in projects with any of the following: indie horror, small & narrative-focused experiences, PSX or N64 style graphics, animations focusing on daily life or the sport of curling, and anything a bit “out there”. I am also particularly interested in soundtracks using electric guitar, piano, or strings (particularly the viola), and dynamic audio using FMOD.
