Hi Bluesky friends!
I promise I won't do this all the time, but I put together a neat little demo reel of a few projects I've worked on!
If any of you need melodically-rich, (potentially) award-winning music for your games, hit me up!

this is Bears football, to me
The Rams might well and probably should win this game, but it genuinely feels like a piece of the Rams’ collective soul is not leaving that stadium

I feel like that game melted me into a puddle of goo, good Lord, jeez.

Stepped up onto the stage at my college’s chapel for a wind ensemble dress rehearsal with a prestigious guest composer, my foot went “pop”, and I crawled back to the trumpet section, played the rehearsal, and couldn’t stand afterwards. It was broken. Took a full semester to heal.
What's the most ridiculous way you ever hurt yourself? I got out of the tub, skidded in water and tripped over the toilet. Ankle sprain.
