Hi, I’m a senior animator and director with extensive experience in 2D animation, revision supervision, and storyboarding across television and independent projects. I’ve led animation and revisions at studios like Atomic Cartoons and Bardel Entertainment, contributed to fan-favorite shows such as The Incredible Ant, Teen Titans Go, and Bob’s Burgers, and I’ve also directed, produced, and created short live-action and animated films. I’m passionate about bringing ideas to life through collaborative storytelling, strong visual design, and efficient production workflows. I enjoy mentoring teams, weaving live-action and animation, and building engaging content—from traditional 2D animation to interactive media projects like Cartoon Chatroom.
