I enjoy mixing the banal with the surreal, and ending up somewhere completely unique and beautiful
Hi. I'm a freelance 3D Artist based in Austin, Texas.
At my core I'm a storyteller and visual artist who realizes the importance of beautiful imagery in the storytelling process. Everything I do is in service of the story, and I'm lucky enough to have discovered a toolset that continues to fascinate me while allowing me to contribute in a uniquely creative and interesting way.
In practice, I enjoy all aspects of 3D image creation and animation but gravitate towards dynamic simulations, shading, lighting, and animation.
Whether it's working with others to help tell their stories in the world of advertising and media production, or creating my own personal, story-based, and experimental projects, I remain entranced by the endless possibilities of 3D animation - where the only true limits are our own imaginations.
I'm an experienced Colorist, having graded indie features, shorts, commercials, music videos, etc., and worked for 15 years as a Visual Effects Artist on such films as Matrix: Reloaded, Matrix: Revolutions (ESC Entertainment), Reign of Fire (Disney Feature Animation), and Rango (Industrial Light and Magic), among others.
