Hi! Welcome to my website 🙂

Let’s start by listening to the following solo piano piece

“F I X E D HbeaRt” performed by Niloufar Nourbakhsh

“Veiled” commissioned by Amanda Gookin: Forward Music Project 

a taste of my chamber music writing 

Firing Squad – Commissioned by I-Park Foundation for Akropolis Reed Quintet

From these recordings, we built a soundscape of two different worlds like audio pen pals. Naomi Moser joined the collaboration to add a visual element. The footage includes scenes of Moser’s own mother in her youth, exploring answers from a different time and generation.  More –> I CARE IF YOU LISTEN 

I love writing for voice!

Please refer to the opera page on my website for more info on “We the Innumerable” 

Do you have more time?

Here is an excerpt from an orchestral piece I was working on

“Knell” (2018) excerpt 

Knell is inspired by imagining the very definition of this word:
“the sound made by a bell rung slowly (as for a death, funeral, or a disaster)”

I aimed to depict a constant ringing bell that is re-contextualized with various evolving parallel lines that keep returning with a different orchestral color.
