About
Passionate about storytelling through sound and music, I’m a music graduate with a background in composition, singing, and drumming. My journey into music began with performing in choirs as a child and self-teaching piano to create my own songs. Over time, my love for composing soundtracks and crafting music that enhances visual narratives grew stronger.
Currently, I’m focused on becoming a film composer and am actively expanding my skills in sound for screen. I have experience writing pop songs and performing in a cover band, but my true calling lies in composing music for film, TV, and theatre.
Beyond music, I’m deeply interested in all aspects of the screen industries. I’m eager to learn and contribute in any capacity, from creative roles to logistical or production support. My goal is to collaborate on meaningful projects while gaining a deeper understanding of the industry as a whole.
