From childhood to my early 20s I played percussion and drums in the school band, rock bands, hardcore bands and punk bands. I also used to make beats.

In my undergraduate, I started scoring my animated projects and posting Composition to sites like Newgrounds and answering composer ads from Craigslist to score student films. I scored three student films in undergrad. I also released music under the name Kid Law which was the first time I was played on the radio. KALX The Next Big Thing to be exact. At the end of 2011, I started creating my LAw moniker.

By 2013 I started Noise met Sound and I eventually dropped the moniker and started releasing music and performing under my real name. I took place in the Beat Cinema Beat Battle where I took 3rd place. I started a radio show called Noise Half Hour Show that lasted 8 episodes and was streamed live and then released on Mixcloud and I also had music in Season 2 episode 9 of Awkward Black Girl during the dinner scene (credited as Law Music). The episode is called The Check.

I never stopped making music, but in 2016 it for sure took a back seat to life. I released a few projects but didn’t perform at all. I scored an original film based on my music called When Noise Met Sound directed by Raymond Metoyer.
