Let me help tell your story! I’m an experienced Supervising Director and Animation Supervisor in the animation industry, working in both features and TV. I’ve collaborated with studios from Vancouver to India, and Ireland to Taipei. My experience has allowed keen insight into the entire animation pipeline from script through final mix, and given me the ability to quickly creatively problem solve any situation that might arise. I look forward to collaborating on your next project!
