Hire Me
By branching into all aspects of VFX, I aim to be the most versatile VFX artist available. My obligation and devotion to learning new techniques and applications gives me the tools necessary to solve any problems that may arise during a project. This knowledge gives me the power to be a very powerful Team Lead/ Supervisor. I have been nominated for an Emmy, as CG lead, with my work on Falling Skies Season 2. I have led teams throughout multiple projects to create the best work that we can possibly do in the timeframes we are given.
