I'm a CG generalist skilled at lighting, texturing, modeling, compositing, and visual development. I started my career as an illustrator in New York City. After studying illustration at Syracuse University, I worked for four years as a 2D artist at The Studio NYC, a small studio making television commercials and short films.
Three years ago, I decided to go back to school to study CG film-making at the French school, Ecole MoPA (a.k.a. Supinfocom). I taught myself French and moved to Arles, the town where Van Gogh created the majority of his paintings. My thesis film "Outdoors", completed in June, 2017, is a story inspired by my roots in New York, which I worked on with three talented teammates.
Since finishing grad school, I moved out to Los Angeles and have been working as a CG Generalist at Ingenuity Studios. I love my job, but since it is a contract position, I always have an eye out for new opportunities.
