I'm a Creative Art Director, Art Mentor, Animation Studio Founder passionate about turning ideas into reality through animation and illustration. I run a full-service animation studio where I led a talented team to produce high-quality work. With nearly a decade of experience teaching 2D and 3D production pipelines while heading an animation department, I've also mentored fifteen ambitious youths to create five animated pilots in just six months through an animation incubator program. I'm an advocate for embracing novel technologies like AI and automation to enhance workplace efficiency and make the creative process even more enjoyable. My expertise lies in directing the creation of visual assets—including concept art, character designs, and environments—while maintaining consistency and top-tier quality. My decade-long experience helps me provide creative direction and constructive feedback to artists and designers, refining visual concepts to meet both artistic and narrative goals. By managing and inspiring a talented creative team, I foster a collaborative environment that encourages innovation and professional growth. Through effective project management, I schedule and prioritize tasks to meet deadlines and milestones, ensuring efficient use of resources and timely delivery. I also participate in talent acquisition, building a strong, diverse team, and contribute to strategic planning by identifying new project opportunities and visual development initiatives.I'm excited to explore new opportunities where I can leverage my skills in animation project management and team leadership to contribute to innovative projects and drive creative excellence.
