During my many years of gaming and atop of being a self-taught pianist, I have acquired a powerful ear for the sound and the monumental impact of the audio in video games.

I want to use this natural ear and unconditional love for video game music to create rich and powerful music for future games that will create memories and trigger the purest emotions.

Teaching small children isn’t easy; Managing short attention spans for so long paved the way to learning to manage

adults easily.

Passion is key; The player must feel the love, heart, and soul put into the game.

I am a firm-believer that piano music soothes the brain, helps you focus, and also take in the information portrayed on the screen.

Video games that allow composers to incorporate piano and orchestral songs in a soundtrack tend to build emotional connections with the player.

Being a self-taught pianist allows my natural ear to expand and create original pieces after learning and respecting the classics.

Games with spectacular audio and soundtracks such as The Last of Us, Halo, and the Final Fantasy series truly clicked in my brain that I wanted to physically be involved in the production.

Successful video games rely on visuals and gameplay, but they are not fully engaging the player without triumphant and rich audio.

I will help change the way we connect with video games, but not with just our eyes, our brains, and our fingertips.
