About

Pixel wrangler, green screen whisperer, and Nuke enthusiast with a passion for making things disappear (digitally, of course). Whether it’s rotoscoping, keying, or integrating CG with live-action, I bring both technical precision and creative flair to every frame. I thrive on tight deadlines and that magical moment when a shot finally clicks.

With experience across 3D modeling, video editing, and photo retouching, I love diving headfirst into the node graph and tackling tough challenges with a dash of humor and lots of layers.
