Over the years, I have worked on commercials, special event projections, album covers, toy packaging, and animations that have been seen around the world. I've worked with both large companies and small startups using a wide variety of different styles and techniques to get the job done!When I am not working in an office, I am painting. I usually work with gouache, colored pencil, and wood (though I am open to using whatever supplies are lying around). I like to paint cute monsters, bright colored creatures, and characters with goofy teeth.Feel free to contact me for work inquires, general questions, interviews, commissions, or to say "hi".Specialties include Character animator, motion graphics, designer, illustrator, concept and storyboard artist.
