I can't remember not wanting to be an animator. I love seeing and creating powerful stories through this medium. I love how memorable animated characters can be.
I attended Sheridan College and I ended up in the final graduating class of the 3 year classical animation diploma program.
I’d worked on kids shows for TV and in mobile games. Working in this industry has allowed me to move around quite a bit. I’ve lived and worked in Toronto, Vancouver, Oakville, Ottawa, Australia, San Francisco and now Montreal.
In my spare time I love to chip away on my independent film. It's a 3 minute hand animated short that I would describe as a twisted love story. I share work in progress for this film on my blog. (Link on home page.)
