I am a motion graphics designer, illustrator, and print designer based in Los Angeles. Because of my background in both studio art and graphic design, integrating the hand-made with the computer-generated is an important aspect of my work. It enables me to maintain an organic, human feel while taking advantage of the flexibility and precision that technology offers. I love collaborating on creative teams, and I enjoy getting my hands on multiple project elements--beyond my animation skills, I frequently use my own illustrations and music compositions in my work.
