Over the course of my 20+ year visual effects career, I have been instrumental in designing Visual Effects for films, television and commercials.

I have collaborated with directors Martin Scorsese, Michael Mann and Clint Eastwood. In 2011 I received an Academy Award nomination for Best Visual Effects for my work on “Hereafter”.
