Feature production VFX experience since 2005 with broadcast and feature editing experience in both narrative and documentary since 2003 makes me a post production strong man in a sensible shirt.

I'm a fast paced Nuke/Flame artist with a winning attitude. I enjoy meeting new challenges, learning new software & techniques, and finishing hot projects with great folks.

Check out my VFX reel, breakdown, and resume: www.whatpictures.com

I directed, shot, and edited the definitive feature documentary about competitive improvised comedy called The Laughing Matter. It also may be the only feature documentary about competitive improvised comedy? Released by Film Buff March 2014, it is available for sale or rent on your favorite online movie vendor here: www.thelaughingmatter.com
