I am a composer currently residing and creating on Treaty 1 territory (Winnipeg). My work playfully engages with the history and performance practices of Western notated music, the idiosyncrasies of its traditions and mythologies.
My works been performed throughout Canada and Europe by a variety of ensembles, such as Carlos Cordeiro, Trio Spilliaert, Polycoro Chamber Choir, Cuarteto Chroma, Quatuor Bozzini, and FAWN Opera, at events such as Festival Mixtur, Festival Osmose, the SALT New Music Festival & Symposium, Laurier New Music Festival, UVic New Music & Digital Media Festival, and Cluster New Music & Integrated Arts Festival. I have had the honour to learn from and participate in masterclasses with Christopher Butterfield, Linda Catlin Smith, Dr. Dániel Péter Biró, Annesley Black, Dr. Glenn Buhr, Dr. John Celona, Dr. Peter Hatch, Dr. Anna Höstman, Sylvie Lacroix, Dr. Emilie LeBel, Giorgio Magnanensi, Dr. Cassandra Miller and Owen Underhill.
I hold an MMus degree from the University of Victoria, where I studied with Christopher Butterfield, and an Honours BMus degree from Wilfrid Laurier University, where I studied with Linda Catlin Smith. At Laurier, I also studied classical guitar performance and continue to perform as a soloist and in chamber ensembles throughout Canada. During my time at both universities, I received numerous awards and scholarships for my achievements.
Outside of music, I am a proud father, an avid cook and baker, and an amateur runner.
