About Me:

I am a Chicago-land composer, guitarist, and recently music engraver (printing out sheet music for people that have handwritten music).

I hold both an MM and BM in composition and as a composer I am interested in combining the energy and sounds I like from punk, metal, and electronic music with everything I love about classical music and its instruments.

I am also very interested in connecting and working with 'new music' performers, theatre, dance, and film people. If you are interested in doing work together, please contact me.
