I’m a VFX production professional with 9 years of experience across visual effects and previs for film and television, working in large-scale studio environments where schedules and communication make all the difference. I’ve supported complex pipelines end-to-end—handling shot tracking, client-facing workflows, departmental coordination, and day-to-day management to keep deliveries on track. In my current role at ILM, I manage VFX schedules through turnovers and scheduling changes, lead daily meetings with department leads, and coordinate crewing and production flags with supervisors and managers. Previously, I’ve line produced and coordinated across DNEG, Framestore, Scanline VFX, MPC, and The Third Floor—using tools like ShotGrid/Shotgun, Cinesync, Zoom, and Pronto to run targets, manage notes/reviews, and ensure smooth client sends.…I’m a VFX production professional with 9 years of experience across visual effects and previs for film and television, working in large-scale studio environments where schedules and communication make all the difference.
