About Me: A Professional Composer
I work as a creator in film and media production and as a professor and teacher. In my career, I’ve collaborated with renowned artists and musicians, ranging from the prestigious London Symphony Orchestra to the legendary Stevie Wonder. My background includes engineering, law, and social work. My experiences are shaped by life and work in the UK and Europe, USA, Africa, and Japan.
My involvement in film and animation as a professional composer started in 1998. Much of my work has been for documentary, giant screen, and themed entertainment projects that have reached audiences around the globe. I have also provided soundtracks for several art cinema and award-winning festival films.
