With production experience in every major aspect of visual effect, I can take your craziest idea from script to edit. No matter if it’s CG environments, simulations, or photorealistic compositing. Let your imagination run wild, and we will make it come true.
I’m a 3D VFX generalist.

2023 Mercedes SL “New Light” Commercial
I worked as part of the compositing team at The-Artery on this ad. This is a one-month turnaround project, and I was assigned compositing tasks for 5 shots. Tasks include: matte painting compositing, inpainting, motion graphics, and some CG tasks.
Inversion (short film)
This is a freelance project I’ve been working on as a VFX artist / supervisor. There are ~15 VFX shots in this project with about half being CG heavy and half being compositing heavy.
0:15 Full CG environment, comp level volumetrics makes this shot versatile for client notes
0:18 Full CG environment, talent shot against green. Matching CG light sweep to on set lighting cues
0:01 / 0:38 / 0:53-end CG title sequence design
Fractals (short film)
This is a 2-3 week project from start to finish, as 1 out of 5 projects in my filmmaking class. I have a few people over to help me with rigging on-set, but I was responsible for writing/directing/editing/sound/vfx.
0:29 - 1:00 full CG connection between the end of shot 1 and the beginning of shot 2, both frames camera-solved with 2 sets of parallel lines and connected through the tried-and-true wipe. CG replica model was provided and matched to the on-set model, but FK/IK rigging/animation is custom.
1:44 - end live-action gimbal dolly flash-cut to a photoscanned corridor, connected with a kitbashed full-CG environment and ray-traced volumetrics.

Peter the Pigeon
This is an ongoing render series I’ve been working on in my down time. The story follows a pigeon named Peter, who is settling down in New York City. Everything you see here are full CG renders. Some of the assets used are digital replicas of cool objects I bumped into in real life.
This series focuses on CG miniatures, with a balance between real-life scaled objects (like the pizza holder chair and the face mask bed) and scaled objects (like the briefcase and the stacks of mini books).
