My Music
Whether arranging music or composing a piece, playing or conducting, creating a video game soundtrack or making music for fun, sound is a passion of mine. In the words of the Red Hot Chili Peppers- "Music [is] the great communicator." Like technology, music transcends barriers and borders. Since elementary school, exploring what music can do for the listener has been a part of the foundation that makes up my personality today.
With the help of various music softwares, I have experimented with what it means to write and listen to various music genres in different mediums. Take a look at the work I have done for video games, orchestras, social media, and electronic music.
Digital Music and Instrumental Performance
These are projects for video game soundtracks and digital experimentation. Some use all electronically produced sounds, while others feature me playing the cello and piano.
Minimalist Electronic Music
Fève Volant
To create a deeper exploration of digital sound and its potential in games and film, I created a Spotify project to make themed albums. My first EP revolves around the theme of emergence and growth, hence the name "First Flight." Featuring the heavy use of layered synths, this serves as my first venture into creating music outside the classical realm, which I have composed and performed in since 2013.

General Video Game Compostions
Here are a few of my pieces for hypothetical video games that I created to practice conveying emotions and themes through digital music.

*The Christmas Game audio is an arrangement, not a composition like the other four*
Arrangements and Classical Compositions
These are projects for instrumental song arrangements as well as original orchestral compositions.
Original Orchestral Compositions
Digital Renderings
I have found significant joy in classical composing due to having been an avid cello player since elementary school. As my performance ability improved, so did my desire to create the music that I could play. Here are a couple of pieces that I have composed for strings and their digital MIDI renderings.

*Although I have had the wonderful opportunity to have had these pieces performed by orchestras and individual performers, I do not have access to any clean audio recordings of them, hence the MIDI renderings*
Favorite Arrangements
Instrumental Performances
As a fun break from academics, activities, and projects, I love to record covers of some of my favorite songs. Here are some highlights of ukulele, cello, and piano covers I have done.
