My first serious attempt at composition was at the age of 15 when I wrote Tango for solo piano. I’ve always played piano, guitar and drums and always been fascinated by orchestration and film music. I studied piano, composition and music education at Trinity College, Dublin and later studied Film Scoring at UCLA Extension where I was privileged to work with some of Hollywood’s top recording musicians and to learn from some of its most gifted composers and orchestrators.
I began scoring student and short films in 2005 and have been doing so ever since; my most recent work has been with the very talented up and coming directors Anne Marie Kelly and Roisin Jones. My composition and recording team includes Dave Hand (Guitars/Production) and Anne Marie Kelly (Vocals, Saxophone, Piano and Lyrics).
