This is a very important question, for personality conflicts between Director and Composer can cause huge problems for completion of deadlines and even the music itself.

My goal is to create a great working relationship with all directors who honor me with the opportunity to collaborate on their movies. Having been in the business world and the music industry, I feel that I can bring a lot of positive professional attributes from the business world into my dealings in the film industry.

I grew up and went to College in England (B.A. in Creative Arts with Music and Drama as my dual majors) and have lived in America for the last 22 years. I have been a music director of a theatre, have taught high school band and have operated a successful real estate brokerage for 17 years. I have been happily married for 22 years and have a son in his second year of film school at North Carolina School of the Arts.
