Hullo, I’m a composer, creative director, and multi-instrumentalist, whose work sits at the crossroads of composition, science, art, and performance.

I’m currently exploring the realm of particle physics; investigating how unseen forces can influence generative, immersive environments.  

My work aims to inspire a sense of awe, wonder, hopefully fostering a deeper connection to our place within the cosmos.

I’m based in London, UK.

Please get in touch if you’d like to make something extraordinary.
