About me,

Chicago-based Motion Designer. Good at making stuff move good™. Capable in a variety of design and animation styles including 2D, 3D, and hand-drawn. Handy with code in a pinch.

Trained in fine arts. My whole life I’ve been tinkering with animation, and I love making designs and characters come alive. Before switching to animation full time, I worked at a job solving UI problems and wearing a bunch of different hats (including animation).

In my free time I like to jog with my wife, learn, and do random crafts and projects.
