My interest in visual effects was heightened after completing my training at the University of Central Florida . During my education, I completed two small productions that gave me the ability to produce quality work in a short period of time as well as work in a team based environment.. My mentor was extremely encouraging of my abilities and provided me with the opportunity to work as a team leader in the final stages of the production.
In addition to my education at the University of Central Florida and the DAVE School , I learned a great deal about production planning as a director and animator for Little Shots Productions in Lakeland , Florida . This position required attention to detail and the ability to assume responsibilities of an art and technical director. Through this experience, I developed an understanding of the complexity and the challenges associated with direction.
At the Juris Corporation, I am working as a Forensic Animator. Here the engineering side of 3d is very important as the films I create have to meet the exact measurement and criteria of evidence gathered in a crime scene. A close attention to detail is very important because my work is considered as evidence and subject to close scrutiny in a court of law.
During my time at Stereo D, I learned a great deal about post-production and the value of hard work. I developed a more critical eye towards my composite work and the world of 3d movies.
Through various freelance jobs, I have demonstrated my ability to be self-motivated, to be critical of my work and to make a deadline. Through my experiences I have learned an importance to story-telling as well as creating quality work in a short amount of time. I am an energetic individual who takes pride in a job well done. I look forward to applying these skills at your company. Call or email me to set up an interview.

I create and QC composite scripts so that they can be used in a 2d to 3d pipeline. This includes baking larger element files, keying, color correcting and streamlining comps while maintaining the appearance of a shot from a vendor to client approved work.In many cases I would have to rebuild layers of an effect so other artists would be able to manipulate them unaccompanied in 3d.
