Available to hire
I’m a seasoned animator with 18+ years bridging cinematic storytelling and interactive gameplay. I’m skilled in previs, virtual camera work, motion capture performance/cleanup, and cutscene development. During my time at Kabam, I combined keyframing, personal mocap data, and internet-sourced motion data to deliver polished sequences using iClone and Character Creator. I’m a strong collaborator who can direct, animate, and implement assets into game engines under tight deadlines.
