Biography

 
 
 
 

I have scored roughly 400 films for networks and independent filmmakers and I launched OBT Music (www.obtmusic.com), a true documentary film music library along with Tom Martin who is also an experienced composer. Our goal is to provide film music that can enable filmmakers to achieve their creative vision without compromising their budget or the quality of the score.
