About Me

I love all things audio, and want nothing more than to bring the amazing experiences put together with my colleagues to life with sound. Unique expression is the best part of video games, and sound plays a critical role in telling those stories!

Rebrithed Album Cover

I completed this album, full of electronic music inspired by various games and other media, and made this album cover to express the huge range of inspirations all splattered together.

For one of Chromawave's songs, I composed an electro-swing style piece for people to experience along with the captivating visuals.

I spend a lot of time experimenting with synths and different composition methods; this is a screenshot of me working in ACID Pro 7, my current Digital Audio Workstation.

Chromawave is an interactive music experience you wont want to miss. Pick from three different student-made songs to play along with, and see music in a whole new world! Play with up to 4 people to work together to create a beautiful scene filled with color.
Ground Control is a cooperative virtual reality puzzle game focusing on communication, teamwork, and problem-solving. This experience features two players working together to blast off with an enemy spacecraft, learning how to operate it as they go. The Pilot, wearing a VR headset, has full access to a panel with a litany of buttons, switches, and other alien technology. In contrast, the Navigator has no such engagement with the controls, but has a booklet of instructions to operate the ship. The Pilot must relay to the Navigator what they can see on the controls, and the Navigator must scan through their instructions to find the correct startup sequence for the shuttle.
