I began my career at NYC's UNIQUE studios, working with guys like LL Cool J and legendary producer Phil Spector. I am a co-writer and co-producer of Matty B's "Hooked On You", which has earned over 27 million hits on YouTube, and I have written with and produced American Idol finalist Big Mike. I have composed for DreamWorks' Puss 'N Boots and have written and performed songs featured in Disney films and TV shows with my band Amelia's Dream, co-founded with my wife Amelia S. Gewirtz. I have also scored numerous TV commercials and played keyboards on Broadway. I am the co-creator of the online music school Study With A Star, and I am currently teaching in the vocal department at Stuyvesant High School through a scholarship from Lincoln Center in partnership with The NYC DOE and Hunter College.
