I’m an art director, filmmaker & 3D artist. I’ve worked as an art director at Google since 2018.
Prior to Google, I taught 3D animation pipeline classes at SAE Expression college in Emeryville, CA, including: character rigging, character modeling, hard surface modeling, dynamic simulations, CG compositing, and more. I have also worked in film and television, and my IMDB credits include the Academy award-nominated animated features Anomalisa and Marcel the Shell with Shoes On.
My short films have screened in dozens of festivals, and I have an MFA from CalArts in experimental animation and a BFA from the University of Wisconsin with a focus on painting and sculpture.
