What I'm looking for

I seek opportunities that foster creativity and collaboration in design.

As an Emmy Award-winning artist, I have dedicated my career to the art of design, storytelling, and motion graphics. With a strong background in animation and visual effects, I have collaborated with industry giants such as Disney, IMAX, and ROKU, creating compelling content that resonates with audiences. My work spans various platforms, including television, web campaigns, and live sports events, showcasing my versatility and creativity.

Throughout my career, I have honed my skills in Adobe Creative Suite, Cinema 4D, and advanced rotoscoping techniques, allowing me to produce high-quality animations and graphics. My achievements include developing the first-ever ROKU Juneteenth screensaver and winning multiple awards for my contributions to network branding and marketing campaigns. I am passionate about pushing the boundaries of design and storytelling, always striving for excellence in every project I undertake.
