About Me
I've been working as a creative professional in visual effects for film for the last 15+ years, working as an Art Director, Matte Painter, and Environment Supervisor. My life before film and game work was as a Creative Director in a design studio, doing Brand Strategy for entertainment companies. I've had the privilege of working on amazing projects, and with even more amazing artists and creatives over the years.
I love art direction and ideas, and would describe myself as a visual problem solver. I've received numerous awards over the years, had vfx work from The Lone Ranger nominated for an Oscar, been nominated for VES awards for Noah and Star Trek, most recently winning Best Environment for Rings of Power, designed the Academy of Country Music Award... and made a lot of friends in the process.
