Classical music in conversation with the present.
My work lives at the intersection of contemporary classical music, independent music production, filmmaking, and visual storytelling. Through composition, performance, recording, sound design, and cinematic film, I create immersive audiovisual works that transform listening into spaces for inquiry.
Whether reimagining canonical classical repertoire or composing original works, I am drawn to questions of memory, perception, history, and the fragile narratives that shape how we understand ourselves and the world.
FEATURED PROJECT:
Water Remembers
A four-part audiovisual series pairing classical masterworks with newly composed reflections. Each release includes:
An intimate contemporary classical recording
An original companion composition
A cinematic music film
Original visual artwork
Beginning with Franz Liszt's Consolation No. 3 and the companion work Converging Tides (after Liszt), the series explores continuity, instability, disappearance, and revelation through music, landscape, and film.
Built from the inside out.
I perform, arrange, compose, produce, engineer, and direct nearly every aspect of each project—from the first musical sketch to the final frame of film. Recording, sound design, filmmaking, and visual art are not separate disciplines within my work, but interconnected ways of exploring the same questions from different perspectives.
About
Music was my first language.
After years performing with orchestras, recording and touring with independent bands, and working in criminal justice reform, my creative practice became the place where those parallel lives finally converged.
Today I create contemporary classical music and cinematic audiovisual works that invite audiences to linger with ambiguity, rediscover familiar stories, and experience inherited works from new vantage points.
