EVOKING EMOTION through the Design of music
Every film is unique, and each one deserves a score crafted with honesty, intention, and care. Music connects with audiences on a deeply personal level. That’s why people don’t just say, “I like that song by that band,” they say, “That’s my song.” This emotional connection is at the heart of great film scoring, and it's something I take seriously in every project. My goal is always to serve your story and bring its emotional core to life through music.
ABOUT ME
Born and raised in Crown Point, Indiana I grew up around plenty of music. After graduating high school in 2015, I spent a year at Purdue University but wasn’t sure how I wanted to live my life post secondary. So, on November 1st, 2016, I joined the Air Force and spent five years as a Radar Technician on the E-3 Sentry AWACS.
Music has always been a part of my life—sometimes in unconventional ways. In high school, I’d forge my band teacher’s signature just to skip study hall and go compose on the practice room pianos. Stay up all night in my dad’s piano room and write music. This led to my first purchase after basic training to be a Casio CDP-135 keyboard, and I spent countless hours in my Tinker AFB dorm room writing music for video games.
Eventually, I made the leap out of active duty to pursue a Music Industry degree. That decision led to me producing the Magnificent Quartet and later composing, orchestrating, and conducting my own creation: The Magnificent Ensemble.
I have a deep passion for film music and telling stories through sound. Specializing in anything audio whether it be composition, ADR, voice-over, narration, sound editing and even foley.

The Magnificent Quartet Live at Circle Cinema Film Festival

The Magnificent Ensemble
The Magnificent Ensemble was a 42-musician volunteered event put on by myself as acting composer, arranger, orchestrater, director and conductor. It was a grueling 5 months of work that paid off on the night of November 9th, 2024.
The Ensemble played 5 of my original pieces The Astronaut’s Wife, The Romantic, The Final Approach, The Embers Rush like Fireflies & The Slow Grass of Valhalla. Featuring string, percussion, brass instruments, as well as a 12 person choir and 2 lead vocals.
This is overall was considered a success with a packed crowd full of friends, family and others who enjoyed the arts. But the greatest thing about it was the musicians were completely volunteers giving up their Friday evenings for 3 hour rehearsals in order to share my music with those in the audience. I am eternally grateful for the dedication of these musicians and their hardwork and I continue to work with them whenever a project calls for it.
The Magnificent Quartet
The Magnificent Quartet was recorded on a sound stage in Oklahoma City featuring 5 of my originally composed pieces. The music was separately recorded in a studio in Stillwater, OK. Each piece was shortened to 7 minutes of playing time but would later be a precursor to the full length versions in The Magnificent Ensemble.
