Our focus is always on producing exceptional work that not only meets but exceeds the expectations of our clients.Collaboration is at the heart of what we do. From the initial pitch through final delivery, I am deeply involved in every phase of the process—leading brainstorming sessions, developing visual strategies, and ensuring that our technical execution aligns with the creative vision. Whether it’s creating photorealistic environments, crafting compelling character animations, or integrating complex visual effects into live-action footage, my goal is to blend artistry with cutting-edge technology to deliver work that captivates and resonates with audiences.One of the standout projects I directed was the OREO x Star Wars collaboration, a unique campaign that required blending the iconic Star Wars universe with the playful world of OREO. This project was a perfect example of how my team and I seamlessly integrate storytelling with cutting-edge visual effects and animation to create immersive worlds that resonate with audiences.Beyond specific projects, I am dedicated to fostering a culture of innovation within the team, encouraging experimentation with new techniques, and empowering every artist to bring their best ideas to the table.

Teaching Visual Effects and Compositing I and II to the talented students enrolled in the BFA program within the 3D Animation and Visual Effects Department. In these courses, I guide students through the fundamentals of visual effects, compositing techniques, and digital artistry, helping them build a strong foundation in industry-standard software and workflows.The curriculum is designed to immerse students in both the creative and technical aspects of VFX, from understanding the principles of layering, keying, and color correction to mastering advanced techniques like tracking, roto-painting, and seamless integration of CG elements with live-action footage. Students work on simulated real-world projects, gaining hands-on experience that prepares them for the visual effects industry.Through lectures, critiques, and projects, I encourage students to think critically about storytelling, visual composition, and the intricate details that bring a scene to life. My goal is to not only equip them with the technical skills needed but also to foster their artistic growth, pushing them to explore innovative solutions and develop their unique creative voices.
