A dreamer living in Copenhagen, Denmark, I have composed music and made sound design for bands, musicals, video games and much more since the mid-1990s.

Inspirational sources are many and varied, but I grew up on Jean-Michel Jarre, Vangelis, The Alan Parsons Project, Andreas Vollenweider and many of the pioneers to merge classical Western orchestral music with electronics and 'world music'.
