The kids’ learning app, ZooPAL-A Gift, launched on August 5th and is available for the iPad in the App store! It is a personalized, interactive story in which your child solves a series of tasks to help retrieve a mysterious box and rescue a new animal. Developed with early childhood development experts, each task helps pre-schoolers build critical skills. With 160 different story lines possible, there’s always a new adventure for your child. I did sound design/music composition for the app.
Some highlights from the first week of launch:
– Reached top 100 rank in 7 different countries under the “educational games” category
– Downloads already in the 1000s in just a week and kids are returning to the app at a high rate day after day
– App featured by iTunes in the top 20 apps in 5 different categories/regions
Press: Here is an article about SmartyPAL from a couple of weeks back.
If you have kids in the 2-5 range (or know someone who does), please download the app here.

“SmartyPAL,” a project I worked on with Kartik Hosanagar and his wife, Prasanna Krishnan, had an article written about it in the Philadelphia Inquirer! I did songwriting, arranging, and sound design for the project, a new educational tablet application designed for kids. Voice acting was provided by Jason West and Courtney Cilman. Check it out and please spread the word about this neat new app!

Monday night, at Cedar Street Studios we hosted the monthly PRC (Philadelphia Recording Community) meeting. We had a great turnout and spread the word about Box of Stars, an organization that spreads mental health awareness (and reduces stigma) through music. PRC is a fantastic way to participate in and network with people/studios operating in the greater Philadelphia area, and it’s a genuinely nice and very interesting group. And Box of Stars is a fantastic organization in which I hope all of my readers opt to play a part.
This evening, I tracked additional piano for Diandra Gore at Third Story Recording. We recorded parts for an original song. It’s a fun, fast, and funky track.
It is such a pleasure and a thrill to be interning at these two fine Philly studios!
Stay tuned for more updates on my upcoming EP; bass/guitar/drum tracking are happening next week!
