I hail from the vibrant metropolis of Johannesburg, South Africa. It's a bustling epicenter of African culture, where the rich tapestry of life unfolds through the diverse array of individuals who call it home. This city has shaped my origins and the essence of my musical expression. I am currently studying towards an Undergraduate for Film Scoring in Hollywood, Los Angeles, whilst simultaneously working.

 

My journey, deeply influenced by the diverse perspectives and interactions with people from around the globe, has provided me with a unique lens through which I view the world. I believe this has been the main driving force that has allowed me to reach my highest achievements such as working on "Music Is My Life" which has been selected as the Offical South African Submission for the 96th Annual Academy Awards (Oscars).

 

With over thirteen years as a pianist and eight years of experience as a film composer, my work traverses an extensive range of film and television genres, spanning the emotional spectrum from romance to comedy to drama to action. 

​

My unyielding commitment lies in the fusion of music composition and storytelling, serving as the driving force behind my craft. I am dedicated to crafting distinctive and impactful musical compositions that elevate the visual narrative, leaving an indelible mark on worldwide audiences.
