On productions including The Boys, Beacon 23, and Fellow Travelers, I created set and prop concept art, hero production graphics, and assets for 3D printing and fabrication. I work as a 1st Assistant Art Director in film and television with DGC Ontario.

At Sinking Ship Entertainment, I directed visual development for interactive products tied to Dino Dana, Annedroids, and Odd Squad. My work included UI/UX and graphic design, and the products earned a Canadian Screen Award and Kidscreen Award, alongside a Daytime Emmy nomination.

At Arkadium, I directed UI, menus, HUDs, and in-game graphics for casual games. At Ganz, I created 2D and 3D art and UI assets for Webkinz and other virtual-world products. I currently evaluate Anthropic's Claude on professional design and visual reasoning tasks through Mercor.
