Seattle Based - Animator / Motion Designer / Artist
I bring a unique combination of skills to my design: educated in fine art, theater, and animation. I enjoy collaborating with teams large and small, creating motion graphics and characters - giving them authentic personality and energy for a broad range of end clients including Hasbro, Microsoft, Nike, Starbucks, AT&T, T-Mobile, Facebook, Seattle Mariners and Amazon. As an award-winning animator and motion graphic designer I bring my keen sense of artistry, theatricality and movement to projects ranging from video games to corporate events, from commercials to explainer videos, from television shows to full-length feature film (including Big Sonia, and The Most Dangerous Year). With more than 10 years of professional experience in motion graphics and animation, I enliven characters, objects, text and logos to deliver entertainment, education and engagement for global and emerging brands.

Seattle Channel’s Art Zone with Nancy Guppy profiled me for one of their segments. In it I talk about animation, dachshunds, running, and my cat - all are in my top favorite things in life.
Here are a couple of spots for my profile on the Art Zone. Meet Max (named after 3ds Max) - my beloved, giant cat, who did not like having someone over at his house recording me. (Aren’t his fangs the cutest?) The second spot is of me discussing some of the animations I created for sports teams.
