"The creative process is what drives me in composing. Being able to be in that process, listening and writing down what I hear is incredibly inspiring!

I can be completely captured by timbres, their shifts, subtle nuances, a tone that changes and the whole the context becomes something else. I am often drawn to contrasts, which mutually reinforce each other, and even the seemingly simple, which also adds depth and meaning with the simplicity in itself. To be in this composing mode is sweet music to me!"
