Biography"I'm a composer, songwriter, and pianist based in California. I've been writing music since I could just barely play music and my style ranges from classical and cinematic to contemporary. I've had many wonderful opportunities to have my music premiered and performed at home and abroad, most notably at Sacramento State University, the San Francisco Conservatory of Music, and the Orfeo Music Festival in Italy. I've also worked with the California Youth Symphony and Sacramento Youth Symphony on commissioned pieces for their respective highest level orchestras."
