Biography

From the start, I’ve always been drawn to how music can shape a story, whether in film, theater, or video games. Without music, something essential is missing from the narrative—it’s that emotional thread that ties everything together. My approach to composition is all about creating music that grows alongside the characters, transforming with the story and deepening its impact.

In the past, I’ve worked on projects like Unter Wasser Lila, Pastèque, and Steambrawl, where the narrative demanded a score that did more than just fill the background—it had to help tell the story. Whether it’s a full orchestral arrangement, a smaller ensemble, or a mix of electronic and acoustic elements, I always start by understanding the director’s vision and building from there.

My background includes studying Composition at Folkwang University of the Arts, and Composition for Film and Theater Composition at ArtEZ in the Netherlands. Masterclasses with industry legends like Conrad Pope and John Lunn have also helped shape how I approach film scoring, giving me insights that go beyond the notes.

What really sets me apart is my experience with live musicians. I’ve worked extensively with orchestras and ensembles, which lets me bring a level of emotion and precision that only comes from truly understanding how music works when it’s performed live.

If you’re looking for music that doesn’t just support the film or the game but becomes part of the storytelling, I’d love to connect and see how we can make that happen together.
