COMPOSER • DIRECTOR • SCREENWRITER

Well, I've finally completely jumped back into the director's chair, but don't worry, it's in addition to screenwriting and composing – all through my production company 2130 Productions and 2130 Music. And I tried to keep it all in this one-stop-shop!

You can catch some of my directorial and screenwriting (...and scoring) work through SOMEONE • THOMAS • MARK & HOPE: A Digital Series of Four Stories, all portrayed by the amazingly talented actor and co-producer Alfonzo Chavez (new episodes every Monday on YouTube) – shameless plug. You can also check out DÜMSCROLT and RISE OF THE PHOENIX. Stay tuned for more!

It's a great privilege to continue work with supremely talented multi-hyphenate and award winning Rachel Bloom, notably on CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND and DEATH, LET ME DO MY SHOW. Then also collaborating with Jack Dolgen (CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND; THE AFTER PARTY; PRETTY SMART) on multiple projects and an episode of THE SIMPSONS writing songs for Kristen Bell among others! Nothing but amazing collaborators!

I've been honored to score Nick Demos' BODY ELECTRIC, Sal Bardo's COME CLEAN, Matthew Johnson's LESSONS WITH MARTHA, and Brian Bolster's KAY'S GONNA BE ALRIGHT and continued work with Marco Ragozzino on MONDAYS AT THE OFFICE among his other films. Too many other films to list but also work in the digital media lanscape with several Podcasts, notably Brian Anthos' OUR HALLOWED FRUIT.

 

Still finding a place for concert & stage, Credo Community Choir performed the World Premier of LIFE-GIVING WATERS for SATB and Chamber Ensemble. And I've completed my first two symphonies WESTERLY and WANDERLUST, a symphonic poem with SATB choir - RAVEN & THUNDERBIRD, and a great many pieces for chamber ensembles, trios, duets, and solos for various instrumentation – performed in the US and abroad. Two full length musicals – OUTSIDE THE LINES and SPECTRA – are currently in development.

As always, more to come...
