My path into animation grew from circumstance and curiosity. I’ve worked across story, design, and production, landing where art meets technology. I pair painting with 3D to explore look, layout, and lighting in the medium our stories often live in.   This process results in clean underlays for 2D artists, rendered “concept model paintings” for presentation, More often than not a model can be conceptualized quickly, or from a painting and/or drawing and offers flexibility for changes, multiple views and seamless 1:1 design integrity into production.

I also love working with and creating more options for story departments. The asset-based designs can be output in any 3D format as plug and play for vendors and right at home with the common late stage changes of today’s production pace. I’m collaborative, thrive under pressure, and focused on design choices that tell a story and help downstream teams succeed.

I’m also developing Script2Screen, a professional-grade, artist-empowering, end-to-end AI system that turns language and sketches into editable scenes and films. It maintains continuity and leverages AI automation—without sacrificing directorial control.
