As a video game composer, I’ve always believed in crafting music that tells a story, complements game-play and elevates it. Being recognized as an “audio alchemist” and “game changer” by an organization as impactful as Black Voices in Gaming is both humbling and energizing.
Their words vindicate why I do what I do: to build interactive/dynamic soundscapes and create emotional experiences for players around the world. I’m deeply grateful for the continued support and for the opportunity to be seen, heard, and celebrated within the gaming community.
If you haven’t yet explored the music behind some of your favorite indie games, I invite you to take a listen to my soundtrack gameography.
BIG LOVE to the entire Black Voices in Gaming team for uplifting creators and amplifying the voices of minority professionals of African/African American/Caribbean descent in the video game field.
