ABOUT 

Cellist - Composer - World Music - Looping Artist

The process for my writing is simple - it requires tapping into the creative flow, and then seeing what surfaces and resonates.

 

As a classically-trained cellist, I find that my compositions work best without music. I incorporate the use of effect pedals, and a looping station, layering 4 -6 different parts at a time.

 

My passion lies in incorporating world music influences with my classical training to create a soundscape for listeners that is peaceful & inspirational.
