About Me

Music is my life, passion and blood. I don't say that just because I love listening to it, or shaking my ass to it. I live to create it. Recently I started writing music for films under the keen leadership of Klaus Badelt (Pirates of the Caribbean, Constantine, Gladiator: co-producer etc). There is a bigger world out there that I want to see and be a part of. Walking around Manhattan and watching life happen is one of the best things ever. PACMAN gives me anxiety. I don't believe in coincidence, I believe in reason. I hate goodbye's.I like red wine, tea and peanut m & m's. Though seemingly pretentious, Sting is amazing. I have a Disneyland pass and use it often, but I don't have to wait in line...I have a special pass. .
