He came to UTC with big dreams of composing music for orchestras.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI wrote a piece, they said I could have it practiced, and maybe performed. I will never forget that day. Getting to see multiple people in that room trying to bring something to life that I had been working on for months. So yeah, that was my moment.\u201d<\/p>\n

And now, he\u2019s living in Los Angeles where he writes soundtracks for video games, movies, and tv shows. By studying with the faculty of UTC\u2019s <\/span>Department of Music <\/span><\/a>he was provided the tools he needed to succeed. Now he\u2019s a successful professional in the music industry.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like if you don\u2019t pick up the ball and try to practice the tools that they\u2019re giving you to work with, then you might be left in the dark.\u201d<\/p>\n
