What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my extensive animation experience in a creative and collaborative environment.

With over 20 years of experience in the animation industry, I have honed my skills as a professional animator, specializing in 2D animation and special effects. My journey has taken me through various esteemed studios, where I have contributed to notable projects such as 'Rick and Morty', 'Trolls: Trollstopia', and 'Star Trek: Lower Decks'. My passion for storytelling and character development drives my work, ensuring that every frame resonates with audiences.

Throughout my career, I have taken on roles ranging from freelance animator to senior 2D animator and animation supervisor. My expertise in software like Harmony and ToonBoom, combined with my artistic background from NBCC Miramichi and Algonquin College, allows me to bring a unique perspective to every project. I thrive in collaborative environments where creativity flourishes, and I am always eager to push the boundaries of animation.
