I'm a Senior Motion Designer and 3D Artist with over 20 years of experience creating motion graphics, 3D animation, and visual effects for entertainment, advertising, and immersive experiences. I've worked alongside talented teams for brands including Netflix, Apple, ESPN, Microsoft, CBS Sports, and Fox, combining design, technology, and storytelling to bring ambitious ideas to life.

​

Selected projects include:

​

• Contributing to ESPN's Emmy-winning graphics team for Monday Night Football.

• Leading animation for SeaWorld San Diego's "Orca Encounter."

• Designing and animating digital signage content for Netflix in Times Square.

• Creating immersive 3D animation for SeaWorld Abu Dhabi's award-winning Hypersphere 360 attraction.

• Contributing to multiple seasons of Fox's "The Masked Singer."

​

My toolkit includes Cinema 4D, After Effects, OctaneRender, Redshift, X-Particles, Ableton, and Premiere Pro, along with AI-driven creative tools including ChatGPT, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, Runway, Google Flow, and Suno. I also use Python and JavaScript to develop custom tools, automate production workflows, and explore new ways of connecting design, animation, AI, and

emerging technology.

​

My background in graphic design at Southern Utah University continues to shape how I approach composition, typography, motion, and visual problem-solving. I enjoy working with great teams, tackling technically challenging projects, and finding elegant ways to turn complex ideas into memorable visual experiences.

​

Let's create something great.
