I excel at solving complex problems that require both creative vision and technical expertise.

My broad working knowledge, gained from both professional and personal experiences, spans multiple disciplines, including color grading, editing, video encoding, web design, UX design, and coding/programming. This diverse background enables me to approach new projects and challenges with a comprehensive perspective, allowing me to explore the technical elements involved in depth to deliver the best possible solutions for clients.

I have collaborated with premium brands such as the NFL, Apple, MLB, HBO, NBC News, CBS Sports, Microsoft, Verizon, Marvel, Kia, Porsche, Castrol, Olipop, Okta, Pepsico Rockstar Energy, American Express, Bombas, Samsung, Mercedes, Johnson & Johnson, and many others. My experience includes elevating brand storytelling in exciting, innovative ways while ensuring each brand's unique voice and visual identity are preserved.

Currently, I am working as a Freelance Animator, focusing on 3D Animation and Motion Graphics. I am open to both freelance and full-time opportunities.
