What I'm looking for

I'm looking to bring feature-style storyboarding, 3D layout, visual development, and production leadership to animated film or series teams creating original, visionary stories.

I've supported animated feature and series productions at DreamWorks Animation Studios, BentoBox Entertainment, Warner Bros. Entertainment, and Plasma Spin Studios. My work spans storyboarding, 3D layout, visual development, production coordination, and creative direction.

On Kung Fu Panda 4 at DreamWorks, I helped the animation team incorporate authentic kung fu moments, adjusted shot progression and silhouettes, explored fighting forms, and provided drawn feedback for layouts. I also directed voice pickups and retakes to better serve the boards and story vision.

At Plasma Spin Studios, I oversee animation production for Pastafazool & Ambys Stoma while developing character designs, 3D environments, storyboards, budgets, schedules, and studio branding. I work closely with artists across animation, backgrounds, character design, color, and look development to keep projects moving.

I've also rebuilt and conformed storyboard sequences for Wolfboy and the Everything Factory, trained coordinators and PAs in a new pipeline, and supported executive and production operations for Disney Channels and SCOOB!.
