COMPOSER

I am a composer and musician, working across a spectrum of genres and media in Aotearoa New Zealand.

My work has been commissioned, performed and recorded by the New Zealand Symphony Orchestra, Auckland Philharmonia, Voices New Zealand, the New Zealand String Quartet and NZTrio, among others.

I collaborate with a range of artists including Neil Finn, Tami Neilson, Don McGlashan, SJD, and Finn Andrews / The Veils.

I’ve composed music for several film, television and theatre productions, lectured and consulted throughout the country, and served as the Director of NZ Member Services at APRA AMCOS for seven years.

I am currently Orchestra Wellington‘s Composer in Residence for 2025 / 2026 – with performances of Requiem and Black Sheep (live with the movie) scheduled for later this year, and new work in progress for 2026.
