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.

Happy to announce that Buzzkill will be a part of this year’s 19th annual Animation Block Party line up!

ABP is one of my favorite events of the summer that cultivates this great vibe of art, community and animation centered around the fest’s Brooklyn roots. Showcasing the best in professional, independent, and student animation, they create fun, eclectic programming that highlights live events, shorts and feature films.

You can catch Buzzkill on Saturday Aug 13th at BAM Film’s “Animation Block Summer Mix, Vol 1” - see you there!
