DIRECTOR | DESIGNER | ANIMATOR | EDITOR | COMPOSITOR | MUSICIAN | WRITER | CREATIVE
I’m the type of person who likes a good challenge and I love to learn new things. That’s why for the past decade, I’ve broadened my creative capabilities through work in branding, print design, web design, writing, and directing motion graphics, 3D animation, and live-action video. These experiences have allowed me to not only collaborate with a ton of fantastic people on some amazing projects, they also gave me the skills to help my clients respond to whatever creative problem they were up against.
When I’m not immersed in a project or learning a new program, you’ll find me spending time outdoors, taking photos, woodworking, playing video games, and cooking.
