My passion is to write songs and music for visuals and brands where the audible becomes a powerful storyteller.

Scoring and sonic branding is about crafting a unique auditory identity where each note, tone or rhythm evokes emotion and memories to make a brand not just recognisable but deeply resonant.  A simple melody can elicit nostalgia or invoke trust leaving a lasting impression.  Music is an indispensable element in the world of film, TV and brands, it is a co author and I feel very lucky to be trusted to bring others stories and brands to life with music.
