About Me

BELIEVE IT OR NOT ...

My passion for art and visual effects started when I was very young, ever since I learned my favorite giant monsters were just men in costumes stomping around in scale model cities. This is what sparked my interest in movie making, special effects, and my love of behind the scenes footage. It fascinated me that people had the talent to build model cities, sculpt miniatures, and create whole new worlds for the movie-goer to see and experience.  

I've been fortunate to know what I wanted to do with my life from a very young age and nothing excites me more than the challenge of bringing fantasies to life. With that passion, I pursued a degree in visual effects with a focus in compositing at the Savannah College of Art and Design. After graduation I got the chance to further my skills on big budget commercial projects, under the direction of lead compositors at The Mill in New York. Later on I was able to put what I learned to the test working as a Freelance Junior Compositor at Framestore’s New York location working on popular Amazon Prime and HBO shows.

After 2020 I landed a position at FuseFX as a full Compositor through their internship program. There I was able to work on my first ever feature film Barbie in 2023, and many other high profile movies and TV shows!
