With over seventeen years experience composing music for advertising, film and artists, my strength is in guiding clients towards achievement of their marketing goals through the use of music in social, historical and emotional contexts. My experience has afforded me a high degree of technical ability with sound equipment and computer related functions. Working well in fast-paced environments demanding strong organizational and interpersonal skills, I am detail oriented, flexible and resourceful in completing projects. Taking the initiative and bringing energy and enthusiasm to all projects, my contributions also include a high level of signal path understanding and in technical problem solving abilities.
