Jacky loves creating contemporary and emotional film scores by incorporating original soundscapes and the orchestra. Recently, he collaborated with Alba S. Torremocha and contributed additional music and orchestration to an upcoming feature film. He was also nominated for the Young Talent Award in Krakow Film Music Festival which ultimately led to the opportunity to meet with Daniel Pemberton and study under the guidance of Miriam Cutler. He was selected as a finalist in the Chigiana International Film Scoring Competition as well.
In addition to writing music, he is also an audio engineer for Quad Studios NYC and James L. Dolan Studio. He was the lead recording engineer for the single Coffee Roaster, written by Dewey Huang and Eden Witvoet. He has also recorded many classical musicians for auditioning for the Cliburn International Piano Competition, the International Chopin Piano Competition, and PhD programs.
While completing his Graduate degree in film scoring at NYU, he has studied with Chris Hajian, Mark Suozzo, Justin Dello Joio, Eric V. Hachikian, Shruti Kumar, and Alba S. Torremocha which led to their collaboration.
