😔 Struggling to feel like a "real" composer?


You've got the skills.
You've got the passion.
And you've probably imaged a life where you're scoring animation, games, or films—working with people who inspire you and sharing work you're proud of.

But right now, it feels like you're stuck.

Maybe you've...

  • 🔎 Googled "composer jobs" more times than you'd like to admit
  • 📝 Polished your reel, resume, or website for the hundredth time

  • 🤷 Wondered where (and how) people actually find paying clients

  • ⏳ Struggled to stay consistent with no structure or guidance

  • 🚩 Said yes to unpaid gigs just to feel like you're in the game

  • 😥 Watched your excitement quietly drain into self-doubt

Yep—I've been there, too.

Even after graduating from a top music school, I had no idea how to actually get work.

I taught lessons.
Played church gigs.
Sent cold emails that went nowhere.
And after 10 years of trying to make it, I almost quit.

But what changed everything for me wasn’t working harder.
It was learning how to position myself clearly, show up confidently, and build creative relationships that led to real, paid work.

That's what the 🎬 Composing Career Bootcamp is all about.

Not hustle culture or phony marketing.
Not waiting for your "big break".
Just real-world skills, grounded in authenticity and practicality to help you build a career that fits your actual life.

What happened after I made that shift?

  • 🎬 I landed composing work with Disney, DreamWorks, and other amazing clients

  • 🚀 I gained an additional 30,000 YouTube subscribers in one year

  • 🤑 I made over $80,000 in 2022 from composing work alone

  • 💪 And I wake up feeling excited—not drained—for the first time in years

This program isn't for people trying to "become the next Hans Zimmer".
It's for composers who are ready to build something honest, sustainable, and creatively fulfilling.

You don't need to be an expert.
You don't need backdoor connections.
You just need a strategy that fits you.
