About

I am a VFX Producer with global experience spanning the USA, Europe, New Zealand, Australia, and the Pacific. I’ve partnered with studios and production companies including Lucasfilm, Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), Warner Bros, Columbia Pictures, Sony Entertainment, Universal, Paramount, Netflix, Happy Madison, and Apple TV+ on projects across bidding, budgets, pre-development, physical production, miniatures, and post.

I specialize in leading day-to-day management of teams, projects, bidding, technology, and pipeline development, including ILM’s first international facility outside the USA in Singapore. Most recently, I’ve supported productions like Murder Mystery 2 for Netflix, Mr. Corman for Apple TV+, and other high-profile VFX-driven projects, delivering coordinated VFX production across multiple studios and geographies.
