I’m a 3D visual effects generalist and Houdini FX artist with a strong passion for FX and dynamics!


Chasing my passion to improve my CG skills one day at time to push the limits of what I can put on a screen. With a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of VFX from Chapman University, certification in 3D and FX from Escape Studios, and an eye honed for design at Seneca College - I approach every project I am part of the most efficient way I can to deliver the best shot I can. I am also never short of enthusiasm!
