I've been tinkering with music since I was a kid, composing tunes for fun. Nowadays, I mainly write orchestral scores for video games. Alongside this, with an extensive career in the games industry as a tools programmer I've now focused my skills on developing next-generation sample libraries and music software.

My work

I've had lots of commercial experience, developing AAA quality virtual instruments and software for companies such as Sonokinetic, Native Instruments, Cinesamples, Zero-G and Spitfire Audio. As a long time user of Kontakt, I'm adept at both buildig instruments from the original samples, and programming them with Kontakt's built in scripting system.
