I started composing electronic music over 40 years ago (so not really a "young" composer, but young at heart!), initially using reel-to-reel tape recorders and various equipment I designed and built myself. Over the years I moved from analog synthesizers to a digital setup. My interest in animation began with an assignment to score a short animated film; this was followed by several additional assignments. I also collaborated with visual artists and dancers in a number of projects.

About ten years I revitalized my love for animation by starting to create my own films, for which I also compose the music and do the sound design. So I finally found a new purpose for my music!
