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.

More fun festival news: Buzzkill will be at the 22nd annual Coney Island Film Festival this September!

A celebration of both independent film and flamboyant carny culture, it has been named one of the “coolest festivals in the world” by Moviemaker Magazine!

Their infamous opening night party features live sideshow and burlesque performers and the festival’s screening venue is none other than the legendary Sideshows by the Seashore theater - home to America’s last authentic circus sideshow. Sounds like Buzzkill will fit riiiiiiight in!
