Working as a composer, sound engineer, and music producer, I spend my days finding sounds that fascinate my senses and drives me to explore new techniques and styles. I can be found wandering out of an old church in Montreal that has been converted into a cutting-edge recording space where I write, record, mix, discover, and hopefully inspire.

I have been fortunate to have diverse experiences in music, ranging from live performances with my band to consulting and construction of more than a few recording studios across the globe. You may have also heard music that I have written in popular commercials for Nestle, Vodafone, Mountain View, and many others, or perhaps some of the more epic pieces I have penned over the years, ranging from Classic Rock scores to Electronica trailers. 

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of writing music for a number of larger companies like Netflix, The History Channel, ABC, PBS, HGTV and CBS, as well as artists and entertainers and other industry professionals. I’m also the founder of “The Mix”, a renowned recording studio with a long list of artists that have come in to create and collaborate.

 Creating a powerful mood and building a unique soundscape is what drives my desire, and I feel endlessly lucky that my passion and profession manage to fit in the same hours of my day. Whether I am writing advertising tracks or helping a young singer unlock his/her song writing skills, my goal is to help fulfill a vision and deliver an unforgettable sonic imprint to any project I am part of.
