I’m passionate about bringing stories to life through both traditional and digital animation techniques. I have worked on a variety of projects ranging from well-known TV shows to academic curriculum development, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with students to help shape the next generation of animators.

I’m deeply interested in animation history, motion graphics, and classic sci-fi, and I have been creating digital art and animation since the 1980s (using a Commodore 64 and Amiga). Whether working on layout design or supervising animation teams, I bring quality, adaptability, and a love for storytelling to every project.
