Hello! I’m an award winning filmmaker, animator and illustrator based in Brooklyn, New York.

With over a decade of freelance experience, I’ve worked as a 2D animator and director for clients such as Pokémon, the NBA, 2 Chainz, Eminem & Snoop Dogg, Netflix, Showtime, Disney and the X-Games. In addition, my short films have played at a variety of prestigious festivals, illustrations have been both published and featured in prominent gallery exhibitions and I’ve served on several film festival juries.

Recently my film Buzzkill screened at over 60 festivals, winning 12 awards including Best Animated Short at Screamfest, Flicker's RIIFF Vortex, GenreBlast and Woodstock - the latter resulting in an Academy Award qualification. It’s now streaming on Alter and as a Vimeo Staff Pick.

These days I’m available for remote work from my home studio, which includes a large Cintiq, Adobe’s Creative Suite, a grumpy cat and all the necessary file sharing and communication tools.

Big happy news - "Out of the Dark" has been accepted at Festival international du film d'animation d'Annecy, the world's leading animation event! I've been incredibly proud of this project and twisting with the anticipation of it's eventual release. Big props to director Chris Carboni and our team at Nathan Love who worked so, so hard to create something really dynamic and unique: 2 short films that explore true stories of those struggling with schizophrenia. In light of this announcement, here's a quick clip - the full films will be available online later this year.
