I am an animation supervisor with over nineteen years of industry experience in varied roles and projects. I began my career in television before providing 3D animation for feature films, including Life of Pi, which won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects. Today, I use my extensive knowledge of VFX animation to guide and motivate a team of animators at DNEG in London. I’m passionate about fostering a workplace where the next generation of VFX artists can learn and thrive, and also have experience instructing 3D animation to first-year students at my alma mater, Capilano University in Vancouver, Canada.
