<aside> 👀

I’m a composer and music producer, creating original music for commercials, film scores, sonic branding, and app sound experiences.

I’ve worked with global clients such as Cartier, Mitsubishi, Uber, the Hong Kong Tourism Board, Mastercard, and Bellingcat, as well as many local clients. My first feature film score, Forever-Forever, premiered at the Venice Film Festival (2023).

I work across styles, from electronic-orchestral hybrids to pop and techno, but I'm known for textures: atmospheric, cinematic sounds that sit between electronic production and live instrumentation.

I’m on the rosters of leading international music companies, including Strings & Tins, Resister, MassiveMusic, Mcasso, Twenty Below Music and Yessian, collaborating on global campaigns and creative audio projects while remaining self-represented.

Based in London.

01 / Approach and background

I come from a songwriting and band background, so I think of music as storytelling first. I've written branded songs on commission and placed tracks from my catalogue in commercials and films – still do both.

I'm still fascinated by how sound changes what you see on screen – same edit, different music, completely different emotion.

Most of all, I love working with people who care about what they do – even when it's hard. The best part of this work is meeting creative, curious people who give a shit. Maybe it’s you:)
