About Me


I'm a composer and filmmaker. I knew what I wanted to do when I was 14. Now I don't know anything else.
Presently I work at HBO on the runawaybox.com web site as a consultant, song producer and comedy director.

I've written film scores for THE BONE EATER, KOMODO vs COBRA, POLAR OPPOSITES, SOLAR ATTACK, The SciFi Pictures Original Movie, A.I. ASSAULT (SHOCKWAVE on DVD), FIRE SERPENT and CRY OF THE WINGED SERPENT for Roger Corman.

I've also scored over 40 other feature films from the late 1980s and early 1990s, including THE RETURN OF SWAMP THING, BIG BAD MAMA II, NOT OF THIS EARTH, DEATHSTALKER II, SINS OF DESIRE, CHOPPING MALL, 976 EVIL II and others.

In December 2006 three of my later scores were released on CD:
