About

Bonnie is a multi-faceted composer who specializes in both musical theater and film scoring. Living in both the stage and the cinematic worlds allows her to write with an emotional sensitivity, "capturing the moment of the story through music." Through thoughtful instrument choices and a genuine love of the characters, she writes "what feels natural and honest" for the scene's emotions.
