An LA-based composer for film, TV, and games, Forest brings 15 years of experience and a track record of over 100 projects.

Originally from Columbus, Ohio, Forest's musical journey began with classical violin, releasing records, and touring with bands while studying composition. After furthering his studies at NYU, Forest moved to LA and honed his craft learning from industry legends including Alan Meyerson (The Dark Knight, Inception, Gladiator, Pirates of the Caribbean), Rupert Gregson-Williams (Aquaman, Wonder Woman, Hacksaw Ridge, The Crown), and Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, Dune, Interstellar).

Recently Forest's evocative score for the film To Kill A Wolf won the MASA Award for Best Feature Film Score of 2025. He has composed the main title themes for South Korean series The Tale of Lady Ok, Sysiphus: The Myth, and Showtime! From Now On. In addition, Forest has contributed music to the Emmy-nominated scores for Amazon's Mr. & Mrs. Smith and HBO's The Last Of Us, as well as recent projects such as 2k's critically acclaimed game Mafia: The Old Country, DC's Superman, and Netflix's LIFT.
