About Me

I'm an award winning musical theatre composer based in NYC. My short musical AIDEN won the audience favorite award in Short Play Festival, and Jack and the Harp and The Legend of Rachel was nominated for Best Score in New York Theater Festival

My other shows include A Truly Original Idea, The Amazons of Overcote High, Dead Letter Perfect (Tel Aviv 2024) and When You Dance (Ha'Studio 2018).

I've studied in various programs including the BMI Musical Theater Workshop, Ryan Scott Oliver's Writers Program, Lipper's Musical Theater Writing Workshop, the BPM College for Sound, the BPM College for Sound and Music Production, and the Rubin Conservatory of Music.


I am mainly drawn to stories about kids, romance, or the future of humanity.

I'm constantly looking for new collaborators to work with so don't hesitate to reach out!
