Motion Graphic Designer • Animator

When I was five years old, I created my first mural with a blue bold point pen and an orange crayon  … on my parents living wallpaper. Two things I learned that day: the first wallpaper is not meant for drawing if I wanted to live to be six, and the second I enjoyed creating.

Today, my canvas is an iMac and my tools are Photoshop, Illustrator, AfterEffects, Blender and occasionally Premiere.

During my career, I have choreographed motion graphics and video on national and local levels for a variety of clients. My projects have ranged from the ancient ruins of Pompeii to the health hazards of cigarette smoking. I’m in flow when I’m solving visual problems and discovering new solutions.

Currently, I'm pursuing a degree in Biomedical Art and Visualization.  I believe genetics is a game changer in biology and we are just beginning to understand the blueprint of life. To me that is very exciting. Through visual storytelling, I want to teach people about the universe that lives within.
