Bring a unique, tailored work to your ensemble's next program. I specialize in composing and arranging repertoire for concert band and string orchestra across all experience levels.
Developing Ensembles (Grades 0.5–3): As a music educator and public school teacher, I understand the pedagogical needs of young musicians. I craft accessible, engaging pieces that help beginners build fundamental skills, tone, and confidence without sacrificing musicality.
Advanced Ensembles (Grades 4–6): Complex, technically rigorous works, including full symphonies and boundary-pushing arrangements, designed to challenge advanced high school, collegiate, and professional groups.
My works have been selected for publication by distinguished partners including the Neil A. Kjos Music Company, Excelcia Music Publishing, and Keiser Southern Music.
Stand out on the field or the track with a custom-designed marching band show. From original, conceptually driven competitive shows to tailored arrangements, I design music that maximizes your ensemble's unique strengths and visual potential.
Original Shows & Arrangements: Whether you need an intricate, high-energy competitive book or an accessible, crowd-pleasing halftime show, I approach each project with pacing, impact, and pedagogical growth in mind.
Tailored Orchestration: I write specifically for your current instrumentation. We will work together to ensure the music highlights your strongest sections while providing appropriate, achievable challenges for developing players across the field.
Drawing from my daily experience in the classroom and my work as a composer, I offer engaging, hands-on clinics for both students and fellow educators.
Ensemble Clinics & Guest Conducting: I work directly with your concert band or string orchestra to refine technique, enhance musicality, and provide unique insights into the rehearsal and performance of my original compositions.
Composer-in-Residence Programs: Step-by-step sessions with students demystifying the creative process, from developing initial musical ideas to structuring a complete piece.
Educational Technology & AI Integration: Equipped with a Master of Educational Technology and certifications as a Google for Education Level 1 & 2 and Gemini Certified Educator, I lead professional development workshops designed to help teachers seamlessly integrate modern technology and AI into the music classroom
Music is the emotional core of any visual story. I provide custom, original scoring for narrative films, shorts, and documentaries. Drawing on extensive experience scoring specialized projects, such as compelling theme park documentaries like This is How We Roll—I create cinematic soundscapes that perfectly pace and elevate your narrative.
Documentary Scores: Rhythmic, thematic underscoring that drives the narrative forward without overpowering interviews or subject matter.
Narrative Film: Motif-driven music precisely tailored to your characters, environments, and story arcs.
Themed entertainment requires a highly specialized approach to audio. I understand the mechanics of pacing, tension, and immersion required to make park audio truly memorable.
Ride Soundtracks: Precision-timed, dynamic onboard or offboard music tailored specifically to the layouts, elements, and pacing of roller coasters, flat rides, and dark rides.
Area Music & Background Music (BGM): Thematic background music loops designed to establish the distinct atmosphere of a themed land, queue line, or park entrance.
