Music Composition and Production
Welcome to my personal portfolio dedicated to my music. I am a professional and experienced storyteller who weaves together emotion and artistry into every note I write. I am constantly chasing new summits to climb, and I believe that my passion for stories and self-expression, coupled with my ever-growing artistic vocabulary, present a unique opportunity to help others move their audience.

My Work

Recent Projects

Older Untitled Projects
"The Four Symbols" is a recent work of mine that marked my first venture into oriental music composition. It was entirely produced in my home studio and features a vibrant mix of the musical traditions from various Asian cultures.
"Kissing in a Daydream" is what I consider to be my first truly polished indie record after many amateurish demos. This song features a myriad of accidental (and intentional) references to one of my musical influences: Daft Punk
These projects are a few of my unfinished drafts scattered over the years. When showcasing one's work, I believe it's important to highlight the evolution an artist takes throughout the course of their career. These demos and rough sketches reflect my creative ambition even at times when experience was still being cultivated. I see them as monuments to my growth and inward glances at unfiltered imagination.
