I’m an award-winning composer and orchestrator with academic and film training in composition. I’m passionate about creating music for drama, thriller, and sci-fi projects.
​
Currently based in London on a Global Talent Visa, I’ve composed for over ten short films that have won awards at international festivals like Iron Mule (New York), Short Com (London), and major Russian film festivals comparable to Raindance and BFI.
​
My theatre work was honored with Russia’s prestigious Golden Mask award for Best Experimental Production. In Moscow, I collaborated with leading orchestras on children’s musicals and classical concerts, with performances at the city’s top venues.
​
Recent projects include scoring a feature documentary about childhood street games, the short film Out of These Watersby award-winning director Corry Raymond, and orchestrating The Burgundy Book — a conceptual album by composer Renu Arora, with a release planned for 2025.
