Composer and Sound Designer at Alter Learning

As the sole composer for Alter Learning, I create the music and sound design elements which immerse the player into the game. My work includes music in a variety of genre, matching the ethos and aesthetic of each game, alongside hundreds of sound design elements which respond to the players inputs and bring the world to life.

The exploration music and main theme for Steamhaven: a game about exploring and repairing a steampunk world, while learning about electronics and physics along the way.

Spirit Canyon

Spirit Canyon is an interactive game music experience in which the player explores a magical canyon inspired by the American southwest. I created dynamic music and sound design elements which form an immersive and interactive experience. I focused on utilizing the music to connect with the physical and emotional journey of the player. I achieved this by evolving the music dynamically as the player progresses, tying the music into the sound design for the space, and creating interactive musical elements for the player to connect with directly.

Snake Bite

I completely re-scored the short animation Snake Bite, recording and mixing new sound effects for the scene, as well as composing a new original score to highlight the action.

SCI-FI UI Sound Design

I created the music and sound design for a SCI-FI inspired game main menu. For the sound effects, I recorded and modified original samples, and blended them with electronics to create glassy tactile feedback for the player interacting with the menu.
