Biography
I am a graduate of the Character and Experimental Animation program at College for Creative Studies, and for the last fourteen years have been working as a layout, background, and concept artist for 2D and 3D animated productions. I have experience in production of episodic shows and shorts for television and web, and am proficient in digital and traditional media as well as photo editing. My background is rooted in classical painting that currently finds an outlet in an occasion plein air session. Looking forward to new opportunities in the realm of animation or design!
