About

Where silence
becomes story

I create immersive soundscapes and original scores that deepen emotional connection between audience and story. Every project begins with listening — to the director's vision, the edit's rhythm, the silences between cuts.

With a background rooted in both music theory and psychoacoustics, I approach each project as a unique sonic ecosystem, building textures and themes that feel inevitable in retrospect.

Currently available for features, series, games, and interactive installations.
