I am a Canadian senior animator with over 25 years of experience across feature films, TV series, video games, and VFX. I've led animation teams of 5 to 15 artists, built animation libraries, assigned shots, and provided detailed feedback during blocking and spline stages to ensure the highest quality and consistency across productions. I am proficient in Autodesk Maya, Blender, 3ds Max, Houdini, MotionBuilder, and the Adobe Creative Suite, with strong experience in motion capture cleanup, rig updates, VR and game animation adaptation, and crowd animation cycles. I am eager to adapt to rapid pipeline changes, including AI-driven workflows, and am fully prepared for remote work or relocation as needed.
