What I'm looking for

I'm looking to create and direct video, motion graphics, animation, and pre-visualization work within collaborative multimedia production pipelines for advertising, media, or entertainment projects.

I'm creating polished video, motion graphics, and animated previsualization for advertising and entertainment productions.

At TKO Advertising, I edit national commercials, explainer videos, social campaigns, and website content for clients including the City of Austin, Lewis Barbecue, the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, and Raise Your Hand Texas.

I've developed animated shorts, cutscenes, and campaign work with CatFace and Element Animation, including Minecraft Live 2023 for Microsoft/Mojang. I finalize camera animation and frame composition for VFX and rendering.

At Rooster Teeth, I supported Justice League x RWBY: Super Heroes and Huntsmen and RWBY seasons 6–9, while onboarding layout artists to the studio pipeline and proprietary tools.
