I am a graduate of the Art Institute of Portland where I received my Bachelors of Fine Arts degree in Visual Effects and Motion Graphics. I am hard working and dedicated. I love to see media projects through from start to finish.I remember drawing a lot when I was younger. Later, my love for animation developed in a high school introduction to video production class, where I enjoyed making the opening title sequences the most.When I was researching programs to pursue in college, it did not take me long to identify Visual Effects and Motion Graphics as the major where I should direct my energy.I have found that I am a very patient person, which helps me to tackle what others may see as the tedious work that goes into manipulating visual effects shots. When it comes to rotoscoping, for example, there is no job too big or challenging. I will tackle it head on and I will not back down. I am a creative individual--I love to make things and to experiment with materials and find new ways to express myself creatively. I still draw and paint in the traditional mediums as well as digitally. I have also taught myself the craft of Blacksmithing and I also enjoy still photography.With the force of all of my creative experience and passion backing me up, I am certain that I can help you arrive at a solution to your creative problems.Specialties: Animation,Roto and paint, composting, digital matte painting, 3d modeling. motion design.
