Denali is a CT-based composer who earned her Bachelor’s in Music Composition at Boston University this year.  During her time there, she had her orchestral and large ensemble pieces recorded by Boston University’s orchestras, Sound Icon, and the MiVos Quartet.  

She is a proud alumnus of the Beta Chapter of Delta Kappa Alpha, a professional film fraternity where its members work on sets and learn about the film industry.  She served as the fraternity’s film composer, where she scored Botched, a satirical comedy about beauty standards.  She also worked as a composer with Boston University Television (BUTV10), where she scored an episode of the thriller series, Shadows.

She spent Summer 2023 participating in all four of New York University’s Screen Scoring workshops, where she learned and practiced her craft under the guides of professional composers in the industry.  She then went on a Fall exchange program at the Royal College of Music in London, and took private lessons with the graduate Screen Scoring professors.

Currently, she is a music instructor at Musicologie New Canaan and Speak Music Stamford.  One day she is singing songs to babies, and the next, she is teaching young kids how to compose on notation softwares.  Then at night, she is a fiddler and vocalist in rock and country bands across the Tri-State area.

When she’s not writing music, performing in bands, or teaching, she is probably crocheting dolls with her three black cats by her side.
