About Me

Based in Los Angeles, CA

10 years work experience in design

I love working on interaction design projects in complex domains where discovery, synthesis and early ideation can happily coexist. I bring a balance of creative and analytical thinking fueled by a decade of experience as a 2d/3d production artist in animation and visual effects.
