I recently composed music for an amazing short film, STEPS, directed by the talented Barney Cheng. It's part of Film Independent's Project:Involve, a mentorship program I was a part of a couple of years ago.
Ten short films were made with the support of Vanity Fair and Banana Republic, and a...Read more
My new album, DREAMS IN THE MORNING, is now available for download. It's a compilation of expressive and melodic pieces from films that I've worked on.

Here's the commercial that we shot in a day for our upcoming concert. It will air on a Chinese cable TV station. It's a little cheesy, but I'm amazed we pulled it off in a day with no money.

I've spent this past week preparing for a really exciting concert. We had rehearsals, worked out schedules and program notes, and even shot and edited a commercial for a Chinese TV station in only a day.

This unique concert is happening in only two weeks on Saturday, June 8th, and I still have to do a press conference this week along with practicing all the music I'll b...Read more

I'm really excited to share this video from the world premiere of my concert suite from J-ok'el. Getting to stand up in front of a real orchestra and conduct my own music in a live concert was something I dreamed of doing since I was a teenager, and it finally happened! It took a long time to get the video edited together, but it was worth the wait. It features footage from the dress rehearsal and the performance.
Also, this was the Golden State Pops Halloween Concert, so the orchestra got to dress up in costumes. See if you c...Read more
