Profile

Motion designer and animator with 10+ years in 2D and 3D animation for live events, LED and projection stages, XR, broadcast and interactive work, for brands including Disney, NBCUniversal, Blizzard, Xbox, Google and Amazon. I also design and ship production software: a client-review platform for LED content, the render farm manager running a 29-machine farm, a resale tool with a native iPhone app, and a 3D puzzle game on web and iOS. I build with AI coding tools and own the product, architecture and testing decisions.
