My career started in Los Angeles as a Lightwave Artist working on a animated movie. I graduated to working on TV shows for the History Channel. During this time, the industry was transitioning away from the program Lightwave. This lead me to changing careers. I worked in Stereoscopic conversion using Nuke converting films. After four years of conversion, I wanted more. I made the leap into compositing. I have worked on a wide variety of TV shows and Films. Please feel free to contact me. I am always eager to jump on new projects and to learn new software. Thank you for your time.
