  • I have known Chris since college (we both studied at U of M in the Studio Music & Jazz program). We both started composing around that time or a little before, and still stay in touch sharing ideas and thoughts. We had the opportunity to work together on an animated series that lasted several years, and his attention to detail and dedication to raising the bar were never diminished. He is a consummate professional and a real perfectionist, often delivering more than the client expects (or deserves). He has developed a mastery of playing, arranging and producing in-studio, especially for orchestral scores, and brings solid drum and unique percussion work to his compositions and productions. Back when I had the pleasure to play live with him it was always a blast and often a learning experience, as he tends to push for more.
