Artist Profile

Originally from Omaha Nebraska, I studied Music Entrepreneurship at the University of Nebraska Omaha and received a Bachelor of Arts in Music. Shortly after studying music and independently studying music composition while at UNO, I began online classes at Feirstein Graduate School of Cinema during the height of the pandemic. About a year later I was able to move to New York to attend in-person classes and have hands-on experience in film and the equipment needed for creating and recording music for film. I recently graduated with a Master of Arts in Media Scoring in 2022.

From an early age, music has been an integral part of my life and the way I have been able to express myself in the world. I have a passion for the use of music in different storytelling mediums and how music effects the way we feel and perceive different art forms. It is my passion to collaborate with different artists from all art and media platforms to create something new and unique.

Please take the opportunity to browse my portfolio, along with my music reels and resume. I would love the opportunity to work with you on any upcoming projects! If you’d like to learn more about my inspirations, interests, or past projects, please don’t hesitate to reach out!
