I have worked in the animation industry for the last 35 years in video games, commercials, films and robotics. I have been drawing for longer than I can remember. I enjoy playing games of all types, especially board games
I have worked on some great projects with some incredibly talented people. Everything from feature films like Thumbelina and The Thief and the Cobbler to video games like Spyro and Ratchet & Clank. I've also spent the last 6 years discovering how to animate a real robot. I love working in a studio environment because not only is it rewarding to create something as a team, there is always something new to learn. Take a look at my resume to see more specifics.

I like trying new ways of creating art so I have experience in many different disciplines including animation (both 2D and 3D), character design, storyboards, layout, directing animation, directing voice-over sessions, managing departments of artists and animating robots.
I'm familiar with Maya, Sketchbook, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, Pro Tools, Microsoft Office, Shotgun and most production software for PC
