Featured Work

Blacklight — Feature Film End Titles

2 Original songs

Collaborated directly with director Mark Williams to create two distinct custom end title songs for this theatrical action thriller starring Liam Neeson. Each piece was crafted to serve different emotional tones in the film's closing moments. Both songs went on to find success on streaming platforms following the film's release.

"I'm The One" — The Last Resort

Original song for on-screen performance

Composed the only original song featured in this romantic comedy starring Daisy Ridley, Sam Neill, and Alden Ehrenreich, directed by Donald Petrie. Written specifically for an on-screen performance scene, "I'm The One" is a fun dance pop banger that serves as a pivotal emotional and slightly humorous moment in the film. The song was crafted in close collaboration with the writer, director and music supervisor (Howard Paar) to capture the tone and arc of the characters' relationship.

  • "The Final Countdown" — Europe

Each arrangement was tailored to fit the show's tone and dramatic arc.
